Solid digestate Spreading

Is it a waste fed AD plant? or a forage/ non waste fed AD?

If its waste fed, PAS110 is VERY Important (PAS110 is a very important piece of compliance that will keep you out of a court room)

Separated solid.
What is feedstock source and PAS110
Pas110 means it’s been cooked basically so any nasties are basically killed off. Similar to taking sewage waste.
Feedstock being grass, slurry, maize, beet, food waste - what’s gone into the AD plant to create the digestate.
 
RB209 will suggest a N-8.9, P-10.2, K -3 (all kg/m3) for separated solids.
These probably aren’t far away as non waste doesn’t have the same mood swings as a waste plant.
I do have analysis for waste fed fibre but it isn’t really relevant to you. The N could swing from 2 kg/m3 to 45kg in the space of a week.

If your spreading on grassland one top tip if using a moving floor spreader is to not overload it, if the solids are being pushed over the sides you will end up with nice burn lines down your field.
