Biomass strategies and policies
Beyond Wood (Oltre Il Legno): Ecosystem Functions and Services to Enhance the Supply Chain and Reduce Environmental Impacts
Short Introductive summary

Additionally it fits with Biomass and rural development, opportunities for biomass-related industries and economic diversification in the sustainable and circular economy, since the new proposed supply chain will be circular with several outlets for the wood material, to be exploited in different was.
