Most companies have a safety incentive program. In theory, it makes sense: reward your employees for staying safe. But what we’ve come to learn is that how you administer your incentive program and the factors you base your results on make all the difference in the world. Even OSHA has weighed in on the subject, [...]
Intellectual property is generally a company’s intangible creations of the mind. It consists of anything from processes, products, trade secrets, customer lists, inventions, names, or creative writings. Intellectual property for many companies may be as much if not more valuable than its physical assets. Because of the very nature of these intangible assets, protection of [...]
“We are shutting down the processing line because we have an equipment failure.” These are some of the most dreaded words in production businesses. If you’re down for an equipment, it can cost precious time, resources, and above all, potential revenue and profit! Equipment shutdowns prevent companies from meeting the needs of their customers and [...]
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there were 2,976,400 recordable, work-related, non-fatal injuries and illnesses in the United States for 2012. Add to that number 4,383 fatal injuries and illnesses that occurred in that same year.

When sizing energy crops to be packaged for use as a biomass feedstock for biofuels, bioproducts or biopower, there are several factors throughout the supply chain that should be considered. While our finished products are tailored to the application of the consumer, these guidelines ensure each production run achieves the desired quality and specification. It [...]
At Genera Energy, we are “feedstock agnostic”, meaning that we work with any feedstock that is the right fit for a given project. Some projects benefit from a diverse portfolio of biomass sources, whereas other operations are uniquely aligned to one particular feedstock. Biomass sorghum is an annual crop that Genera Energy has extensive experience [...]
When we hear the word agriculture, the first thought that pops into your mind is usually a local farmer. The last thing anyone thinks about is an industrial scale biomass supply chain, feedstock production, or storage. Industrial scale agriculture is much different than a small family farming operation. Specifications on quality control, scheduling, and logistics [...]
As Genera Energy continues to develop industry leading biomass supply chain solutions, we are always on the lookout for new and improved dedicated energy crops. These crops may be relatively new species not commonly thought of for bioenergy or may be existing crops that exhibit improved through genetics or with which new agronomic systems have [...]
You might be surprised what all you can buy insurance to protect these days: homes, cars, boats, your health, teeth, life, even your pet’s health or a quarterback’s arm, and that’s just scratching the surface. But risks in production agriculture are different from risk in most other segments of the economy where they are biological [...]
Managing our inventory of biomass feedstock comes with its own unique set of challenges. We typically deal with baled biomaterials such as switchgrass, miscanthus, and corn stover as well as a number of chopped and milled energy crops. All of these feedstocks are subject to physical material losses which inevitably leads to economic losses. Therefore, [...]
