Great pic SZ.
This shows that the mulberry will be coppiced. It's much more efficient, and much higher leaf density than waiting for a mulberry tree to grow to full maturity. This allows the shoots to grow rather quickly and harvestable every couple months.
Also, these new hybrids look like very high yields. It would be great to get to the 30-35 ton/ha/year out of these. Also bodes well for the theoretical swiftness for building up mulberry production to the 2500ha goal. The real bottleneck would be the labor for prepping and planting the new fields, but it sounds like the co-ops are working that out.
Thanks
