Map of the state of Missouri with colors indicating biomass production potential. Most of the state can produce 1-250 thousand biomass tonnes/year/county from forest and primary mill residues. Counties in the north and in the southeastern corner of the state can produce 1 to more than 500 thousand biomass tonnes/year/county from crops and crop residues.
