Abstract
Switchgrass is a perennial grass that is widely considered a promising feedstock for bioenergy production due to its high productivity and adaptability to different environmental conditions. Its cultivation is becoming increasingly important in the global transition to renewable energy sources due to its economic and energy efficiency. Compared to traditional crops, switchgrass is a cost-effective crop to cultivate, which can help reduce carbon emissions and improve the environment.
Switchgrass can be cultivated on marginal lands, making better use of available land resources (Sesmero et al., 2021). One of the peculiarities of switchgrass is its potentially higher yield (Zhang et al., 2017). Typical switchgrass cultivation leads to increased yields over multiple growing seasons (Happs et al., 2024).
