This study was conducted in the villages of Hassan district in the farmers houses, it has important role in the future energy supply from biomasses like oil cakes and cow dung and this is the way to saving of fuel wood and reduce the pressure on forests. Pongamia, Bassia and Calophyllum are three major species growing in Karnataka state and produced lot of oil seed cakes. Calophyllum, Simarouba, Jatropha, Pongamia and Bassia seed cakes were used in the experiments, all these five species are the best source for biogas production, among five Calophyllum, Pongamia and Bassia shown good performance.
