The parallelization of cultivation conditions together with a statistical multi-parameter design of experiment (DoE) approach allows the rapid establishment of species-specific growth recipes as well as the optimization of specific target values such as biomass, secondary plant metabolites or morphology. VertiPharm – Automated multifunctional research platform for vertical ...
One says that better soil data can be used to predict surer levels of yield. The other recommends a technique perfected at least 700 years ago in West Africa that converts nutrient-poor tropical soil to fertile and nourishing black earth. ...
Department of Energy's (DOE) Bioenergy Technologies Office (BETO) announced that it is preparing the reviewer pool for the funding opportunity announcement "Advancements in Algal Biomass Yield, Phase 2." The Advanced Algal Systems Program within BETO is looking for experts who are not part of an application team to apply as potential merit reviewers. ...
According to the model, the annual algal biomass production in an open pond measuring 1,000 m2 in Lelystad is 1,538 kg of dry mass. This represents 15 tons of dry mass per hectare. The biomass yield per surface area in a tubular PBR is twice as high as in an open pond, and three times as high in a flat panel PBR. The cost price per 1,000 m2 for ...
” The Danforth Center has expanded their portfolio over the years by studying model C4 grasses to improve the quality, yield and biomass of emerging bioenergy feedstocks such as miscanthus and switchgrass and that can be applied to improve food security and major cereal crops. ...
Researchers on the project are assessing the amount of variation in grain yields, biomass yields, soil moisture and soil water quality among various cropping systems and landscape positions. ...
The report highlights some key improvements: 13 fisheries have improved stock management, bringing stock levels up to accepted global best practice for healthy stocks (Biomass at maximum sustainable yield or Bmsy). For example, North Sea herring 22 fisheries have completed improvement action plans targeted on habitats and ecosystems, including gear ...
However, limited data is available on silage yield and quality responses of recently released hybrids to seeding rates. ...
The experiment was designed to test the efficiency of double cropping sorghum grass to increase its yield for biofuel production. The author of the report, Ben Goff, found that using sorghum from a single-cropping system was more effective for the production of ethanol. ...

Nichols has been conducting undergraduate research on improving soil compaction and biomass yield. She has also worked with The New River Planning District and Mercer County Solid Waste Authority. ...
Corn stover is the most profitable cellulosic biofuel feedstock on cropland in the Great Lakes Region at current prices. For perennial biomass crops to earn farmers more than corn, prices or yields would have to change. At biomass prices of US$110–US$130 per metric ton or yield gains of 50–60%, poplar, switchgrass, and mixed ...
The real value is that sorghum can be bred to produce vast amounts of biomass, the raw material for cellulosic biofuels made from stems, stalks and leaves. ...
