Plant biomass

With the rise of the biobased economy, we need to produce plant biomass whilst avoiding conflicting uses of land and promoting the sustainability of this production.

The New-C-Land project is designed to help select the most optimal use of the identified marginal land according to the social, environmental and economic context and based on a decision support tool.

Three types of plants are considered when it comes to producing plant biomass:

Woody plants

Willow, alder, poplar, locust

Lignocellulosic plants

Miscanthus, hemp

Herbaceous plants

Brassicacea, Poacea, Fabacea

The New-C-Land project is designed to offer advice and implement projects in order to use plant biomass produced on marginal land.
