DESCRIPTION
This group is a forum for exchanging information, ideas, and opinions about
the use of BAMBOO in PLANTATIONS.
Whilst bamboo has been exploited from natural stands from time immemorial,
only recently have we seen the over-exploitation of bamboo forests to
provide raw material for bamboo industries.
The growth of industries utilizing bamboo requires the sustainable
cultivation and management of bamboo resources.
Bamboo is increasingly being cultivated like other agricultural crops, that
is, in large-scale, professionally managed plantations.
The aim of the group is to learn more about, and contribute to, our
knowledge of bamboo plantations.
The topics of interest to the group include:
-global inventory of bamboo plantations
-regulatory issues related to bamboo
-national policies and strategies on bamboo agroforestry
-environmental impact of bamboo plantations
-planting material used for bamboo plantations
-genetic enhancement of bamboo for plantations
-the socio-economics of bamboo plantations
-the role of women in bamboo plantations
-the utilization of bamboo from plantations
-the technologies implemented in developing and managing bamboo plantations
-opportunities for plantation development
-assessment of existing plantations
-information on bamboo plantation projects
-harvesting methods and yield of bamboo plantations
-opportunities for bamboo plantation development
-economic and business analysis of bamboo plantations
-industries dependent on bamboo as a raw material
-data linking bamboo to other wood and non-wood forestry crops
This group is interested in knowing more about the issues that are directly
or indirectly related to bamboo plantations. The group is thus an open
platform for disseminating information related to bamboo plantations.
This group is open to all individuals: farmers, environmentalists,
agronomists, entrepreneurs, industrialists, or anyone with a special
interest in bamboo cultivation.

Amigos: aunque en ingles, una interesante informacion sobre bamboo como
fuente de energia. Existe una fabrica de papel en Recife, Brasil que usa
bamboo como energia, y en Honduras existe un proyecto en negociacion para
generar 50 MW de bamboo.

> One of the most pressing environmental problems of the late twentieth
>century is the global warming associated with the use of fossil fuels.
>Simply stated, the problem is that enormous amounts of carbon dioxide were
>"saved up" long ago and stored in oil and coal. When these are burned, the
>carbon dioxide and monoxide are released into the air. These gases are not
>reabsorbed by other plants; hence, we have a build up of these gases until
>they are plentiful enough to cause climatic change.
>
> Biomass fuel burned sustainably means that as a plant such as a tree or
>bamboo is burned, the gas given off is reabsorbed immediately by the
>replacement plant. One might burn 1 ton of bamboo and release 1 unit of
>carbon dioxide; this gas would be reabsorbed by the new bamboo that
>immediately sprouts. The oxygen-carbon dioxide cycle is, therefore, in
balance.
>
> Bamboo makes an excellent biofuel because it grows more quickly than any
>other quality biofuel; it is easy to handle; it has other saleable
>by-products (food shooots and ethanol, for example); and it grows back
>immediately with no soil erosion.
>
> Bamboo has a BTU range of about 8200 - 8700 BTU, about the same as other
>woods. Mr. Clifford Pugh did the following analytical comparison of bamboo
>and coal:
