The present disclosure relates to a system for controlling an extraction of landfill gas flow (LFG) from a plurality of wellheads at a landfill. The system has a first wellhead located at the landfill, a first processor having a first rule set, and a first LFG flow control valve controllable by the first processor. A second wellhead is located at the landfill in a vicinity of the first wellhead and has a second processor and a second LFG flow control valve. The second processor has a second rule set and is operable to control the second LFG flow control valve. The first and second processors use their said rule sets to control the first and second LFG flow control valves, respectively, to control an LFG flow through their said first and second wellheads, respectively.
