Abstract

The present invention relates to methods for interplanting staple crops and energy crops. In some embodiments, the present invention includes methods for preparing a planting site for growing energy crops. A planting site according to the present invention may include main crops planted in a first column and a second column, the first column being separated by a middle column. The middle column is divided into a central part and two side parts (a first side part and a second side part). The method according to an embodiment of the invention comprises the steps of: excavating a mixture of soil and planting debris from said intermediate region; redepositing mainly the soil components of said mixture of soil and planting debris into said central portion; And redepositing the planting debris component of the mixture of soil and planting debris primarily into at least one of the two side portions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to methods for interplanting energy crops with a primary crop on a plantation site. Background technique [0002] Due to the dwindling quantities of coal, oil and natural gas products, attention is being paid to other energy sources including oil shale, solar and nuclear power. One energy source that has received considerable attention is forest biomass materials, such as wood, plants that grow with trees, and wood by-products. Forest biomass can include any type of biomass produced by forest tree growth, such as dead trees, non-marketable trees, branches, understory, stumps, intercropping, other vegetation that grows with the tree, clippings, harvesting residues , tree trunks, wood chips or other similar materials. Forest biomass has potential use in a myriad of different applications including, but not limited to, heat production, production of liquid fuels, production of biogas, production of bioelectricity,...
