Abstract: The biomass resources monitoring system is based on a comprehensive analysis of the agricultural biomass supply potential using the broad definition of biomass formulated by the European Commission, i.e. biomass processed or capable of being processed for all purposes: food, feed, industrial bioproducts, energy.
The agricultural biomass monitoring system includes:
• Plant production: cereals, potatoes, industrial plants, vegetables, fruits, others; more detailed divisions possible, if justified by the significance of the results and the availability of data;
• Animal production - cattle, pigs, sheep, poultry, others; more detailed divisions possible, if justified by the significance of the results and the availability of data; (example pictures 1,2)
• Agricultural and food industry: processing of products from the above; agricultural production; mapping of divisions - the detail of the analysis will depend on the availability of data, mainly from BDO (database on products and packaging and waste management)
The system was developed as a decision support tool. It uses the latest geoinformatics technologies - it was programmed in a geographic information system (GIS) environment. Work on creating a decision support and biomass management system began in 2012 and has been continued as part of various national and international projects. Currently, the system is a ready to use geoinformatics tool that enables decision support for the development of the bioeconomy, on the scale of EU, Poland.
