Abstract

Bioresources require as a basic resource (fertile) land to convert carbon dioxide, water, and solar irradiation into biomass. This makes them inherently de-centralized resources whose productivity is limited by the availability of these valuable basic resources, namely fertile land and water. Both of these basic resources are limited, which makes it crucial to utilize them with the highest possible efficiency. In practice, it means that all parts of bioresources harvested as well as all by-products along the value chain employing bioresources must be utilized, either for obtaining economic and societal profit or for maintaining the fertility of the basic resource (land) by returning nutrients to agricultural land or forests.
