Harvesting costs make up a large share of the total costs of biomass produced from SRWCs and might amount up to 45% of total cultivation costs.
“Consequently, harvesting costs make up a large share of the total costs of biomass produced from SRWCs and might amount up to 45% of the total cultivation costs [24].”
Typical harvest rates charged by Belgian and Danish subcontractors range from 400 € ha−1 for a tractor-pulled stem harvester, over 600 € ha−1 for a tractor-pulled cut-and-chip harvester, to 950 € ha−1 for a self-propelled cut-and-chip harvester.
“Typical harvest rates (excluding transportation costs) charged by Belgian and Danish subcontractors range from 400 V ha À1 for a tractorpulled stem harvester, over 600 V ha À1 for a tractor-pulled cut-and-chip harvester to 950 V ha À1 for a self-propelled cutand-chip harvester [24].”
Post-harvest chipping costs vary between 15 and 20 € odt−1 according to recent literature.
“According to recent literature [15,24], post-harvest chipping costs vary between 15 and 20 V odt À1”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
