Forestry feedstocks utilized in the renewable industry include woody biomass such as: logging residue (e.g. slash, saw dust), forest management waste (e.g. wildfire mitigation, diseased tree removal), and dedicated energy forestry crops (e.g. poplar trees and willow stands). A sustainable future requires solid forest management practices to maintain habitats for wildlife and minimize the devastating effects of wildfires in impacted communities. Forestry feedstocks experts will be able to evaluate the value of the customer’s forestry product. Considerations are logistics and transportation, storage, preprocessing costs, composition including ash and moisture content. Businesses that can optimize their economics and minimize their waste include: the pulp, paper and lumber industries, public utilities who perform tree trimming and removal, urban city managers, and public and private forest landowners.
