Abstract

Organizational costs in biomass transactions could be a key barrier to commercial development of cellulosic based industries. Understanding biomass producer characteristics and preferences will be important to the future development of renewable industries like cellulosic ethanol. In this paper survey data are analyzed that identify assets biomass producers currently own, services they are willing to provide and their preferences for selling mechanisms. A multinomical logit model is used to analyze producer preferences.
