Maize and other annual crops are easier to manage with traditional farming, but they are tougher on the environment. The researchers conducted ecosystem-scale comparisons of carbon, nitrogen, water, and energy fluxes of Sorghum bicolor with maize and Miscanthus x. Energy sorghum falls somewhere in between.
