The results of two sets of laboratory experiments on biogas generation from the wastes of a rural vegetable and cattle market of Bangladesh under daily feed condition at ambient temperature are reported in this paper. Only the easily biodegradable wastes were used as the feed for biogas production. Cow dung, fish waste, ginger, cursed lobe, guava, and banana leaf were found to be the major biodegradable wastes of the market. Daily average composition of the wastes was used in the experiments. The total solids (TS) and volatile solids (VS) of the biodegradable portion of the market wastes were 24.06% and 18.28% respectively
