Synergistic co-location of process plants

摘要

Legume fodder crops, grown as soil-enhancing fallow crops for sugar cane, are processed in feed mills co-located with existing cane sugar mills to produce animal feed products, such as hay, with a positive economic value. The process uses some of the sugar mills' excess fibre by-product (bagasse) as the energy source for the dehydration of the fodder.
