This could be useful in India, where farmers prefer to just burn the biomass after a harvest, causing lots of air pollution in North Indian areas like Delhi, especially in winter.
- kylehotchkiss 1y agoThat's also partially a labor issue too though, right? If the farmers had the ability to clear those fields manually, I would like to think they'd do that. They aren't quite generating substantial enough revenue now, and I highly highly doubt BioFuelCo will pay farmers fairly for the waste.
- fakedang 1y agoIf BiofuelCo can clear those fields rapidly with some tech they developed, then farmers would let them take that waste even for free. Clearing the fields in time is the major constraint here - the window is extremely narrow (like a few weeks or something).
