Abstract:
Grain chaff could provide 54.8 Mt of additional annual potential biomass in Europe. In the framework of the AGROinLOG H2020 Project, the chaff collection system developed by Thierart company was tested in Sweden to evaluate the amount of biomass collectible, the harvesting losses and performance, and the economic feasibility of the system. Such system allows to collect the chaff separately onto a trailer. The total residual biomass increased by 0.84 t ha-1 without negatively affecting the performance of the combine.
