Draft:Intermediate Crops

Intermediate Crops are planted and harvested on land that would otherwise be idle in a rotation pattern between main crops or in a fallow rotation to produce low-carbon feedstock for renewable biofuels and chemicals.

Intermediate Crops are referenced in the European Union's Renewable Energy Directive II (RED II).

Examples of Intermediate Crops include Camelina sativa, Thiaspi arvense , and carinata.
