Re: [bamboo-plantations] Re: Bamboo Vs. Wood

Gigantis Bamboo plantation

Dear Johnek
 
It's a agriculture plantation. The harvesting sistem was with 15 people. After they used many diferents forestry machines. Now they are testing i think two or three diferent ones. I do not know the real names. One part of the plantation, is use for biomass in heating sistems and boilers sistems.

Dear Robert
 
We are from Brazilian Bamboo Producers Association. The
biggest private bamboo plantation is located in Brazil, more
than 40.000 hectares. In Pernambuco state and Maranhao

State. They use it for paper. I can give you more
information, if you need.

What's to keep bamboo from becoming a "highly
subsidized vested interest" ?
Just wondering, not trying to be contentious !
Thanks

Interesting article. 
 
We need more research about other superior attributes
that can  make bamboo and rattan more widely respected as a
viable alternative to the highly subsidized
corn-cotton-timber vested interests..They killed it here in
the USA, but proper education and promotion could bring the
research back.
 
Does anyone know where the biggest private bamboo
plantation in the world is?  I would like to see
that.
 
Interest in this group seems to have gone down, but
tough times are just the right time to get prepared for the
"bamboo revolution" that could propel sustainable
alternatives based upon biomass to market dominance.
