What is paddy (rice straw) feedstock?
sourced
Paddy straw is the stalk left after the rice harvest - abundant across India and often burned, which is a major air-pollution source. It is fibrous and lignocellulosic, so it digests slowly and usually needs size reduction and co-digestion with a nitrogen-rich feed.
