The objective of this workshop is to educate legislators,
entrepreneurs, the business and manufacturing community, community leaders
and interested citizens about the potential for biomass, and especially
Arkansas biomass, in the production of energy and value-added products.
The workshop was made possible from a U.S. Department of Energy grant from
the Southern States Energy Board (SSEB). Additional sponsors include the
College of Engineering at the University of Arkansas (U of A),
Fayetteville; the U of A System's Division of Agriculture; the Arkansas
Department of Economic Development - Arkansas Energy Office; Winrock
International; the Poultry Federation, Arkansas Farm Bureau and the
Agricultural Council of Arkansas. The workshop will draw on the expertise
of Arkansas biomass experts and invited speakers/workshop
coordinators.
