The impacts on biodiversity after clearing alien-invaded land to supply industries with biomass

PROJECT SUMMARY

This project assesses the environmental impacts of collecting biomass from sites cleared of alien invasive species to supply value-added industries such as sawmills, agriculture, and bioenergy industries. It aims to guide the framing of harmonised policies and investments in the fields of the emerging bio-economy and policies around the control and use of biomass from alien invasive species.
