Frogmary Green Farm Ltd

What Frogmary Green Farm Ltd does

Frogmary Green Farm Ltd, trading as Bragg Farming, is a privately held, family-owned integrated agricultural enterprise established in 1990 and operating from South Petherton in South Somerset, United Kingdom. The company cultivates grass, barley, maize, and wheat, supplying these crops to local livestock businesses and as feedstock for anaerobic digestion. Its core renewable energy infrastructure includes a partnership with Engie UK for an on-site anaerobic digestion plant that converts energy crops into biogas supplied to the national grid, an 840 kW biomass woodchip boiler powered by locally-sourced timber, and on-site solar photovoltaic panels. The operation also produces and spreads natural digestate fertiliser — the nutrient-rich by-product of the AD process — to neighbouring arable and mixed farms, closing a circular nutrient loop that reduces dependence on artificial fertilisers.

The business model is anchored in three revenue streams: (1) B2B crop sales to livestock farms and AD plant operators, (2) renewable energy generation through AD, biomass, and solar assets, and (3) digestate fertiliser supply and spreading services to regional farms. Go-to-market is direct farm-to-farm sales across South Somerset, Wiltshire, and the broader south-west England region, supported by a network of trusted contract farmers. Regenerative practices — crop rotation, reduced chemical inputs, ground cover management, hedgerow restoration, tree planting, and wetland creation — underpin the company's environmental positioning and alignment with UK sustainability regulation.

Frogmary Green Farm Ltd remains a small operation with 1–10 employees, no disclosed funding history, no external institutional investors, and no identified acquisition activity. Ownership is concentrated in the Bragg family, with Nick Bragg identified as the principal farmer. The legal entity is Frogmary Farm Limited, a UK private limited company with no public listing.

Core offering

Frogmary Green Farm Ltd (trading as Bragg Farming) operates an integrated agricultural enterprise producing grass, barley, maize, and wheat crops for sale to local livestock businesses and as feedstock for anaerobic digestion. The farm hosts an on-site AD plant under contract with Engie UK that converts crops into biogas supplied to the national grid, an 840 kW biomass woodchip boiler, and solar photovoltaic panels for renewable heat and power, while natural digestate fertiliser from the AD process is recycled and spread onto regional farms.

Product overview

Bragg Farming operates as an integrated agricultural enterprise combining traditional farming with renewable energy production. The core offering consists of crop production (grass, barley, maize, and wheat) primarily serving local livestock businesses and anaerobic digestion feedstock contracts. A key differentiator is the farm's renewable energy operations, which include a 840 kW biomass boiler, solar PV panels, and a partnership with Engie UK for an anaerobic digestion plant that supplies gas to the national grid. The farm also produces and supplies natural digestate fertiliser as a by-product of the AD process. Services include agricultural contracting with certified operators for spraying, handling, and general farm work.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Crop Production (Grass, Barley, Maize, Wheat) Cultivation and sale of grass, barley, maize, and wheat crops using sustainable methods and modern agronomy practices. Crops are sold to local livestock businesses for animal feed and supplied as feedstock to anaerobic digestion plants.
• AD Feedstock Crops Wheat, barley, maize, and grass grown specifically as energy crops to fuel the on-site anaerobic digester, producing biogas for the national grid.
• Natural Digestate Fertiliser Nutrient-rich by-product from the anaerobic digestion process, supplied and spread as a natural fertiliser to a range of regional farms. Reduces dependence on artificial inputs and improves soil health and vitality.
• Biomass Energy System An 840 kW biomass woodchip boiler powered by locally-sourced timber that delivers renewable heating throughout the farm site, reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
• Solar Photovoltaic System On-site solar photovoltaic panels generating clean electricity from sunlight, cutting carbon emissions and supporting the farm's sustainable energy needs.
• Agricultural Contracting Services Agricultural contracting services for farm operations, including PA1 & PA2 certified spraying, telescopic handler work, loading shovel duties, and general tractor operations across the farm and contract farming network.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Dyson Farming: Large UK arable estate in Lincolnshire with on-site anaerobic digestion, biomass, and solar renewable energy assets plus regenerative agriculture practices. Most direct operational analogue to Frogmary's integrated crop + AD + renewables model, but at materially greater scale.
• Moy Park: Integrated UK and Ireland poultry producer that combines agricultural production with on-site biogas / anaerobic digestion using poultry litter and energy crops. Comparable in the integrated ag-plus-renewable-energy business model, though operating in livestock rather than arable.
• G's Fresh: One of the largest fresh produce growers in the UK and Europe, supplying supermarkets and food service. Comparable as a UK B2B crop producer operating at significant scale with diversified crop portfolios and long-standing customer relationships.
• Velcourt: UK farm management company operating progressive arable and mixed farms, including sites with renewable energy integration. Comparable in the UK professional farming context where sustainability and operational intensification are monetised through scale and contracts.

Others

• Engie UK: Major UK energy utility that operates the anaerobic digestion plant on the Frogmary site under a feedstock supply agreement. Engie is comparable as the counterparty and industry context for AD/biogas economics, but as a large diversified utility rather than a direct farming competitor.

Emerging players

• Daylesford Organic: Premium UK organic farm and retailer with regenerative and biodiversity commitments and direct-to-consumer supply. Comparable in sustainability-led brand positioning and diversified farm output, though operating a different distribution model and without AD integration.
• Tregothnan: Cornwall-based UK estate farm focused on tea, botanical, and sustainable produce with strong ESG positioning. Comparable as a UK estate farm monetising sustainability and provenance, though without the AD/energy integration of Frogmary.

Regional players

• Future Biogas: UK-based anaerobic digestion plant developer and operator that builds and runs on-farm and standalone AD plants using energy crops, agricultural residues, and slurries. Directly comparable as the demand-side counterpart for AD feedstock markets in which Frogmary supplies crops.
• CNG Fuels: UK supplier of compressed biomethane (renewable natural gas) produced from anaerobic digestion of agricultural feedstocks. Comparable as part of the same UK biomethane value chain in which Frogmary supplies AD feedstock to gas-to-grid plants.
• Ancala Bioenergy: UK anaerobic digestion and biomethane infrastructure investor and operator with multiple on-farm AD sites. Comparable as an AD industry counterparty and potential offtaker for energy crop feedstock in the regions it operates.
