This is the beating heart of a farm design based on the concept of #Silvopasture. My thinking is this is how Bitcoin will directly integrate into agriculture beyond farmers and ranchers accepting payment in Bitcoin for their products.

To be brief this system converts woody farm waste to energy, #biochar, and wood vinegar. A Silvopasture, properly managed, can produce a massive amount of wood for feedstock. The Electricity produced is used to power Bitcoin miners and a wood chipper. The residual heat of the miners and generator is used to reduce the moisture content of the woody feedstock and then heat a greenhouse. The biochar and wood vinegar are used as soil amendments and much more.

Biochar added to soil acts as a battery for water (making trees, shrubs, and grasses drought tolerant) and nutrients. NOTE: This is a much longer discussion but suffice it to say that I want as much Biochar in my soil as I can get. It makes soil resilient.

Wood Vinegar? Yeah, that's a massive discussion all by itself but . . . you want it in the soil as well.

Electricity produced: Possibly 2 MW but . . . it depends. Bitcoin mined: It depends but maybe 0.11 BTC per day. Biochar/Wood Vinegar produced: That depends on the gasifier.
