摘要

Wetlands in the United States provide a large land base for producing biomass for energy applications. Typha species have been identified as a particularly suitable biomass crop for wetlands because of their superior productivity (40+ Mg/ha standing crops), pest resistance, adaptability, and chemical composition. Production methods were evaluated in this report to identify ways of maximizing biomass yields while minimizing costs, leading to a sustainable, economically competitive production system. Harvesting studies found that a single annual harvest of leaf biomass is preferable to a semiannual leaf harvest or an annual leaf harvest coupled with a biennial rhizome harvest. The annual leaf harvest is sustainable, results in the lowest nutrient removal, and yields 80% of the biomass obtained from the combined leaf/rhizome harvest. Semiannual leaf harvests appear to damage Typha stands and not be sustainable. Water loss from Typha stands, which will influence site selection and possible irrigation requirements, was found to be significantly affected by species selection, water management regimes, biomass yields, and microclimate. Based on equipment considerations, drainage of Typha paddies approximately one month prior to harvest is preferable to continuously flooded paddies even though yields appear to be reduced slightly. Studies of substrate pH limitations found that a pH range between 5.5 and 8.0 appears optimal. A flowering study found that while flowering can reduce vegetative shoot propagation and individual shoot standing crop, the frequency of flowering is usually too low to have an impact on overall yields, and, hence, control measures are unnecessary.
