James Hart has found a new source of renewable energy on his farm.
With revenue from pig products getting smaller every year, some farmers from rural England have decided to make some extra money by turning poo into profit.
James Hart, who runs a pig farm, came up with a simple solution of using the huge amount of pig faeces, cow dung and chicken droppings on his farm to generate electricity.
It may look unremarkable from the outside, but inside Glebe Farm there is a state-of-the-art biogas station. It's one of only a few in the UK, which has been slower than many of its European neighbours in developing renewable energies such as wind turbines and solar panels.
