Loose harvesting produces shorter reed canary grass chaff
than when shredding bales. Shorter chaffs are easier to mix
with other fuels and the flow in the power plants’ equipments
is better. But storing loose chaff takes significantly more space
than storing bales. Stored reed canary grass must be covered
very well especially if it is in loose form. In Denmark fixed
roofed central storehouses are used for storing straw. This
kind of fuel terminals could be one way of storing reed canary
grass bales in Finland.
