1 Commercial Production & Harvesting of Shrub Willow Crops in NY State Justin Heavey SUNY ESF Justin Heavey, Timothy Volk, Mark Eisenbies SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry Short Rotation Woody Crop Operations Working Group Seattle, WA July 18, 2014
2 Shrub Willow Research at SUNY ESF since 1986 obreeding ocultural Practices oharvesting and Logistics oeconomics 40,000 commercial acres in Europe Commercial production now accelerating in the United States Supported by USDA BCAP Shrub willow shortly after planting
3 Shrub Willow Can be grown on marginal land 1 million acres in New York State (poorly drained soils) Goal: target underutilized/abandoned farm land Not compete with food crops
4 Barriers to Commercial Willow High start up costs - $1,000/acre Intermittent cash flows Long payback periods Uncertain markets Status quo bias Specialized machinery
5 USDA Biomass Crop Assistance Program (BCAP) Improve domestic energy security, reduce carbon pollution, and spur rural economic development provide assistance to land owners to establish, produce and deliver biomass feedstocks.
6 Biomass Crop Assistance Program Catalyze commercial adoption and innovation Partial establishment grants o Offset high start up costs Land rental payments o Non harvest years Purchasing contracts o With biomass end user
7 ReEnergy LLC BCAP project sponsor for NY Willow Biopower company - facilities throughout the northeast 11 year purchasing contracts Mixing willow with forest residue chips Renewable electricity

11 Commercial Plantings acres in northern New York State Mostly marginal soils or fallow Willow step planter
12 Commercial Plantings Planting speed = 1.5 acres per hour Planting stock quality (sorting) Wet spring delayed planting Fall site prep for large acreage Weed pressure and controls vary field to field
13 Commercial Plantings Coppiced over winter 2013/2014 Majority well established 50 of 850 acres to be replanted Late establishment Hot & Dry 2014 Site Prep 2015 replant Weed control ongoing some areas

18 Commercial Harvesting 300 acres previously established crops in USDA BCAP No establishment grants Land payment & contracts 100 acres harvested acres next 1-2 years 1200 commercial acres - harvest every year
19 Harvesting Platform New Holland self propelled forage harvester - 130FB header Developed by New Holland Agriculture from Tested in commercial-scale trials by SUNY ESF 2012 Efficient harvesting platform now commercially available
20 Chip Collection System Matching harvester throughput Up to tons/hour (wet) Keeping harvester moving Limit collection vehicles Maintain efficiencies High-dump sugar cane wagons Dump directly into transport vehicles Large 12 ton capacity Narrow wheel base
21 Biopower ,500 tons of chips harvested from BCAP fields ReEnergy Lyonsdale - mixed with forest residue chips 1400 Mwh of renewable electricity from willow (5% gen) Forest residue chips Willow chips

24 Commercial Willow Chip Quality Low variability feedstock that meets end user specs Mixing with forest reside chip for biopower 2013 harvest samples taken at plant gate
25 Moisture Content 2013 Commercial Harvest 2012 Commercial Trials Previous Research Trials Average 43% 45% 44% Stan Dev ± 2% ± 2% - Range 35% 55% 37% - 52% - Ash Content 2013 Commercial Harvest 2012 Commercial Trials Forest Residue Chips Average 3.0% 2.6% ~2% Stan Dev ± 0.7% ± 0.6% - Range 2% - 4% 1% - 3% -
26 Energy Density 2013 Commercial Harvest 2012 Commercial Trials Forest Residue Chips btu/lb (dry) 8,240 8,200 8,200-8,600 Overall chip quality similar to forest residues chips Meets end user specs Suitable for mixing feedstocks
27 Willow Extension Services Training and education for BCAP willow Technical assistance Outreach programs Crop monitoring Equipment access Analytical tools and research summaries
28 Lifecycle Economic Model EcoWillow 2.0 Establishment, harvest, transport SUNY ESF (2007) - Updated 2014 Current data, logistics and best practices from commercial willow More user friendly design based on grower feedback Currently beta testing
29 National BioEnergy 2013
30 Future Crop Outlook Commercial production just beginning in NYS Seeing innovation and system improvements by growers Ongoing breeding programs and experimental trials SUNY ESF, Cornell University and others Numerous commercial and collaborative partnerships
31 Future BCAP Incentives Included in approved 2014 Farm Bill -pending allocation of funds Establishment grants Land rental payments Purchasing contracts Possible biomass co-payments
32 Summary Commercial willow production happening in the US Starting with 1200 acres in New York State BCAP incentives, contracts, and extensions services Catalyzing adoption and innovation Chip quality meets end user specs for mixing Continued opportunities & improvements expected!
