This section has not been filled in yet. discussion Not sure what else to put on this page - a lot of the important points are covered in the "image description" for the infographic I plan to make. And to what extent should I redundantly say the same stuff that's already covered in the crop residues page? Hmmm Anyway I should probably just list examples of biomass waste here, redundantly to the diagram. Or maybe make the diagram a full-page-width image instead of a rightside thumbnail? idk
