The rhizomes are packaged in big bags of 5,000 or 10,000 units.
Environmentally friendly locations
Novabiom is particularly committed to promoting the development of miscanthus projects with added environmental value, for water protection and the fight against soil erosion.
Water protection
Miscanthus cultivation no longer requires systematic chemical inputs after its implantation. It has a buffer role against diffuse pollution along watercourses and creates dilution zones in water catchment areas.
Erosion control
Miscanthus is a perennial plant with a permanent cover and a dense root network. It prevents gullying and effectively fights against erosion.
