Within the project „Information for a sustainable use of agricultural residues for bioenergy provision”, the potential of straw in Germany will be analysed under consideration of ecological, technical and economic aspects. Work tasks are, among others, the determination of the potential by means of humus balancing, the analysis of climate impacts (GHG emissions), and the techno- economic analysis of different straw provision pathways.
Goal of the project is to provide information on the sustainable use of agricultural residues, in order to support the sustainable exploitation of these mostly unused resources. Due to the fact that the use of residues like straw could be increased in the future, potential environmental impacts should be analysed at an early stage and be integrated into the potential analysis (and the subsequent strategy development). Therefore the straw potential of Germany will be analysed on county level (NUTS3-level) by applying different methods of humus balancing. Techno-economic and ecological aspects of the enrgetic use of straw will be analysed, in order to identify advantageous straw provision pathways.

TLL
The Thuringian state institute of agriculture is working on the following tasks: Describing agricultural residues, analysis and description of the legal framework, data mining, determination of the regional cereal straw potential using an empiric humus balancig model, determination of favourable straw use pathways concerning the humus balance, monetary evaluation of the residue use, calculation of supply costs and summarize the results to provide recommendations of action.
INL
The INL concentrates on the potential straw exploitation relating to sustainability, the sustainable humus balancing in particular. That means all fruits per area level, inputs and outputs of the production are considered and incorporate into the balancing. That makes it possible to evaluate a straw potential. In cooperation with the TLL the results of the humus balancing are calculated in 3 different ways:
ÖI
Öko-Institut addresses questions related to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions caused by cultivation efforts, focussing on the calculation of GHG emissions from the production chain of straw, including soil carbon, and the implementation within the life-cycle assessment tool GEMIS. The sustainability of production chains will be evaluated and proposals for ecological optimisations will be elaborated.
