Corn Stover Potential: Recasting the Corn Sweetener Industry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Corn stover is by far the largest single available biomass not being used, representing more than one-third of the total waste, including municipal solids. An estimated 200 million dry tonnes (t) remain each year as aboveground residue.

Food without fire: Environmental and nutritional impacts from a solar stove field experiment

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, Volume 108, Issue 4, Page 1121-1144, August 2026.
Abstract Over 80% of the population in rural Sub‐Saharan Africa relies on biomass cooking fuel, a substantial source of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. We use a field experiment in Zambia to investigate the impact of solar stoves on biomass fuel use and cooking habits.
