Taxonomy

       Angiosperms/Monocotyledoneae/Gramineae/Miscanthus/Miscanthus sinensis

Overview

       Miscanthus sinensis is found in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Hunan, Fujian, Taiwan, Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Guizhou, Yunnan and other provinces. It's also found in Korea and Japan. Miscanthus sinensis is a dominant community in mountainous, hilly and wilderness areas below 1800 meters above sea level.
       Miscanthus sinensis has the characteristics of rapid growth, high yield and easy propagation. It can cover the ground quickly after sowing. It is a pioneer plant suitable for the development of barren slopes and lakes, it can effectively protect soil and water, prevent erosion and improve the surrounding ecological environment. As an energy plant, Miscanthus sinensis has the most development potential and economic value. For many areas of our country, there is a wide space for developing bioenergy, such as a large number of barren hills, barren lands, barren beaches, barren slopes can be used for the cultivation of Miscanthus sinensis
