Have a look about switchgrass. It only requires labour for the first
planting and then each successive harvest, ie it is perrenial. I heard
from a local organic farmer that as such it gives 13 to 1 energy return
when used as a fuel. Maybe a rocket stove ?? Apparently it will grow
just about
inger.
Two to 5 tons of grass pellets can heat that home for an entire year, he said.- Original Message From: Joe Street [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: biofuel@sustainablelists.orgSent: Tuesday, November 7, 2006 10:20:40 AMSubject: Re: [Biofuel] Pellet fuel options

Of course, these are just examples. A little more searching may turn up a
manual or semi-automated process/design. You figure, rabbit feed is in the
same form

Hello. Does anyone else use a pellet stove? Prices have jumped this year
from $2.25~2.75 to $4.75+
That fairly dries up the reason to have/use the stove (cheaper cleaner

I am looking for other fuel options. I would love to produce my own
pellets as I have
