      abstract = {First-generation grain ethanol biofuel has affected the  historical excess capacity problem in U.S. agriculture.  Second-generation cellulosic ethanol biofuel has had  difficulty achieving cost-competitiveness. Third-generation  drop-in biofuels are under development. If lignocellulosic  biomass from perennial grasses becomes the feedstock of  choice for second- and third-generation biorefineries, an  integrated system could evolve in which a biorefinery  directly manages feedstock production, harvest, storage,  and delivery. Modeling was conducted to determine the  potential economic benefits from an integrated system.  Relatively low-cost
public policies that could be  implemented to facilitate economic efficiency are  proposed.},
