TL;DRAbstract

Producing green energy through the use of woody biomass from short-rotation forestry gives farmers an interesting alternative to traditional crops while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. In Italy, the cultivation of hybrid poplar for woody biomass in short-rotation coppice (2 to 5 years) is a business opportunity for farmers and technicians involved in the production cycle, from the fi eld to the power plant.
