Natural resources - Biomass Potential Assessment
Biomass Potential Assessment - This module of the RA assesses the selected feedstock for bioenergy. The output is an initial indication of quantities of feedstock available from crop and livestock residues, forest harvesting and wood processing residues, as well as crops. Profitability of different crops is also taken into consideration.

The BEFS Rapid Appraisal land suitability maps are a complementary part of the Crops Component and can be used to support the Crops Production analysis. The maps show two levels of input (low and high) under rainfed conditions for 10 crops suitable for the production of liquid biofuels.
