Potentially, but probably not. Storing uncompressed gas is massively space inefficient. So you would need to burn it off quickly or compress and store it. Now you have an explosion risk. Composting works better in the summer than in winter, so you probably aren't using it for heating. Farm machinery like tractors work on diesel fuel and can't realistically be converted to use compressed gas or electricity. There are dozens of other small things we're both probably not thinking of. You have to add massive amounts of time, infrastructure, repairs, fuel use and other issues rather than just buy bulk fertilizer and diesel fuel which are actually quite cheap and easy to use and store..
Also the amount of usable gas you get isn't that much. Sufficient to cook some eggs for and run a generator for 5 mins for a gay youtube, but not enough to actually heat you home or charge your electric car. Just to run the generator 24/7 he'd need around 500 chickens and a system x5 the size of the one he was using.
it's anaerobic fermentation installation that start at half a million USD that when you have 500 cows and a large scale setup that run 100Kw generators the small ones only drive 10Kw generators.
You can do run some machines with 100kw of continuous power
I think you can run a bit of a farm with 10Kw if you don't have everything running at the same time.

it's not going to replace anything, but at today's energy prices especially here in europe it's a nice source of extra revenue
