Abstract

Alternative resources as feedstock for the pellet production are becoming more
prominent. This development results from an untapped potential of agricultural residues as
well as a globally increasing use of wood residues in the form of pellets. Nowadays,
agricultural residuals as straw, hay and husks are the most popular raw materials for the
agro pellets production. Taking into consideration that the straw in Macedonia is baled and
used mainly for internal consumption of the agricultural farms as bedding for livestock and
in rare cases for feeding animals, this paper analyses the justification one agricultural
company to produce pellets from straw that is usually burned on the field.
