Switchgrass Harvesting

Caption

Scientists harvest switchgrass planted at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. The field trial was established in 1992 by researchers from Virginia Tech to examine biomass production across a five-state region. That study ultimately spanned ten years and compared yield of six cultivars produced under two harvest management regimes.
