Short-rotation willow productivity and nutrient dynamics after three years of irrigation and fertilization
(2012-03-13)
Purpose-grown shrub willow (Salix spp.) represents a viable bioenergy feedstock; however, there needs to be sufficient biomass production to support the economic viability of these plantations. The objective of this ...
The effect of irrigation and fertilization on willow productivity
(2010-02-24)
Purpose-grown shrub willow (Salix spp.) represents a viable bioenergy feedstock, especially if these plantations can be successfully grown on unproductive land that is marginal for annual crop production. The objective of ...
Evaluating different techniques for estimating biomass in short-rotation willow plantations
(2009-03-25)
The hallmark of any successful purpose-grown willow production system involves regular monitoring of willow growth to apply timely management techniques for supporting increased productivity, but also timing harvest for ...
Examining the nutrient dynamics of willow biomass energy plantations
(2012-03-13)
Natural Resources Canada, along with a number of Canadian provinces, considers bioenergy to be a legitimate and sustainable source of energy that will constitute a significant portion of future energy production. Shrub ...
