It seems very popular to make tree farms, using various parts for biofuel and various for burning in solid heat boxes (railcraft).
I'm wondering if it's possible to out perform that with crops.
Supposing we
1. Breed good crops
2. Cover them with a crop-matron that's full of fertilizer and has water pumped to it
3. Additionally have an MFR fertilizer covering them (can use their fertilizer or IC2 actually)
Other ideas? Let's rule out blood magic for now.
There's a number of ways we could best put the stuff to use for actual energy production.
Maybe turn sugar into sugar charcoal (MFR) for running in boilers(Railcraft). Maybe make biomass....that one's tricky, because IC2 biomass is convenient to make, but less convenient to use. Whereas biomass is less convenient to make in Forestry, but can very handily be dumped into Reactant Dynamos (unfortunately IC2 Biomass cannot) , along with powdered sugar (thermal expansion). Generally I think it would be great if IC2 Biomass was usable with other mods' biomass, but maybe there's a good reason this ain't so. Worth mentioning I also couldn't get Railcraft Steam to work in an IC2 Kinetic Steam Generator.
Or maybe go with a variety of crops, and funnel them all into an MFR Bioreactor.
I suppose there are also options from Advanced Generators to consider, which I know very little about (including whether it's popular), and options I wouldn't know much about from GregTech.
