Expanding Production Area and Alternative Energy Crop Market of Proso Millet for Water Deficient Lands
| 项目名称： | Expanding Production Area and Alternative Energy Crop Market of Proso Millet for Water Deficient Lands |
| 摘要： | Expected project outcomes are as follows: (1) Increased production of low water use proso millet as a bioenergy grain crop in non-traditional production areas. With its low water use requirements, proso millet could become the preferred grain crop in limited moisture areas, such as water depleted conservation reserve program (CRP) lands, without disrupting the feed grain markets. (2) Ethanol plants utilizing proso millet as a feedstock will expand the market for proso millet without consumer concern about rising food cost associated with ethanol production from corn. |
