Abstract
⺠Four scenarios estimated the days available for harvesting switchgrass over 9-months, July through March. ⺠Beginning harvest in July and extending through March required 33 balers compared to 64 balers for a short (October-December) season. ⺠Maximum required storage capacity was 75% of the total annual harvest for the short season and 44% for the extended season. ⺠Capital cost to build storage was reduced by 41% by selecting the extended harvest season.
