4. SEEDMECHFolie / Page 4 Target: High energy yields Environmentally compatible production way  APPLICATIONS:  Use this crops in biogas plants  Use this crops directly e.g. pellets  For production of heat, electricity und fuels Bio-energy crops

5. SEEDMECHFolie / Page 5 IMPORTANCE: Trend: Increasing land use for bio-energy crops Alternative supply for fossil raw materials like oil and gas Public targets for increasing the percentage of bio- energy crops like in Germany from about 5 to 15% That means increasing number of bio-energy trials! Bio-energy crops
