Energy crop cultivation biomass yield

In this article, this new energy crop has been introduced and its benefits extolled, in particular, the yield data of Table 1. However, the specifics were done within the economic and time constraints of the grant and are left open for more detailed scrutiny. In particular, the botany and plant physiology of the SSPs need clarification by experts, as do the physical characteristics of Table 1. Further studies are needed to establish heating values for the SSPs and to determine combustion characteristics. Knowledge of the cultivation and harvest of these plants must be expanded. The hope is, however, that the set of plants discussed here makes direct burnable biomass an economically feasible alternative on a broad scale.
