Abstract This study reviews a variety of “bioeconomy approaches” (BAs) to assess their potential contribution resilience in agricultural systems, focusing on benefits that can improve multi‐functionality regarding private and public goods. It is based Meuwissen et al.'s framework the farming systems. Drawing literature expert knowledge, this indicator adapted develop new which then applied seven contrasting BAs (miscanthus, perennial flowering wild plant mixtures, permanent grassland,...
'Perennial wild plant mixtures' (WPM) cultivation is a novel approach to combine biomass provisioning for biogas production with biodiversity enhancement at field scale in Germany. But the methane yield about 40% lower compared silage maize. Therefore, of WPM incentivized 250–927 Euro per hectare and year. However, agronomic best management practices are unclear, so that large parts potential likely remain untapped. Hence, this study aims shed light on farmers' current perspectives...
Climate change and man-made pollution can have a negative impact on the establishment of Miscanthus plants in field. This is particularly important because biomass be produced marginal land without conflicting with food crops. The success depends hybrid chosen, cultivation method, climatic conditions, concentration pollutants soil. There are several ways to increase survival rate during first growing season after winter. One them application biochar photodegradable plastic mulch, which...
Abstract Harvest time is an important variable that determines the yield of miscanthus biomass, its possible end uses, and nutrient offtake from field. Green harvests result in a higher greater removal Brown harvests, carried out late winter or early spring, lower yields offtake, whereby harvested biomass better suited to use combustion. To look at long‐term impact green on miscanthus, this experiment followed development two hybrids subjected brown over period seven years one site Southern...
Abstract Perennial energy grasses have gained attention in recent years as a promising resource for the bioeconomy because of their benign environmental profile, high stress tolerance, biomass yields and low input requirements. Currently, strong breeding efforts are being made to extend range commercially available miscanthus switchgrass genotypes. In order foster farmers' acceptance these crops, especially novel hybrids, more information is required about how they can be efficiently...
