2.3.1. Feedstock production and harvesting
The feedstock production and harvesting model is supported by operational data from industry (Jose Zerpa, Brian Stanton, Rich Shuren, GreenWood Resources, oral &written communication, 2011e2014) and literature.
The first year of feedstock production includes growing poplar trees at a nursery and preparing the plantation location for poplar to be transplanted the following year.
Nursery operations include herbicide, fertilizer, and pest control application as well as irrigation.
Once large enough, the poplar trees are turned into cuttings and transported to cold storage.
Preparing the plantation location for the cuttings will depend on the site specific characteristics, but in general the land will
undergo heavy andfinish disking, smoothing, row marking, and herbicide application.
