- Slide 1
- NEW CROPS FOR BIOFUEL/BIOPRODUCT PRODUCTION AND THE FEEDSTOCK READINESS PROFILE ABFC, NEW ORLEANS,JUNE 2015 Processing Research since 1892
- Slide 2
- FEEDSTOCK READINESS CHART THE INFORMATION FLOW FOR DEVELOPMENT NEEDS INCLUDE ALL STAKEHOLDERS. Research Producers Government Processors Financiers The feedstock readiness chart is a useful tool, although linear in its approach, It goal is to be an information source to bring a feedstock to market. We have been working on two new crops for fuel production.
