Title
Wadena Agricultural Community Biomass Assessment Project
Description
The national interest in biofuels and rural development, supportive national policies and projected increase in demand have pushed many communities to align themselves for the impending influence of biofuel development. Among these biofuel enthusiasts is the community of Wadena, Minnesota. Wadena Agriculture Alternativesﾆ collaborated with the University of Minnesota Central Sustainable Regional Partnership and the University of Minnesota Extension to coordinate a project to measure the biomass potential in the region. The concept of a 'fuelshed,' a region capable of supply biomass to a community or facility, was used to identify existing feedstock sources in the region.
Funding information
Prepared in partnership with Wadena Ag Alternatives by the Community Assistantship Program (CAP), administered by the Center for Urban and Regional Affairs (CURA) at the University of Minnesota.
