Feedstock Readiness Level Evaluations Summary Table v4.0

Project Title:  View help for Project Title Feedstock Readiness Level Evaluations Summary Table v4.0

Summary:  View help for Summary Feedstock readiness level evaluations are performed for a specific feedstock-conversion process combination and for a particular region. FSRL evaluations complement evaluations of Fuel Readiness Level (FRL) and environmental progress. The table in this dataset collates the results of the FSRL evaluations listed under the Farm2Fly Ag Data Commons datasets to enable users to quickly identify, review, and compare available evaluations. Evaluation scores are explained in the FSRL Checklist and Template available on the NAL Ag Data Commons - scores range from 1 to 9, with higher values indicating greater maturity of the feedstock in each area of assessment (production, market development, policy evaluation and compliance, and linkage to conversion efficiency). The overall score reflects the lowest maturity area within the four assessment areas.

Summary data files of the compiled evaluations will be added to the repository on a quarterly basis, and are cumulative (the last quarter will contain the compiled evaluation results from the entire year). To access the newest evaluations that are not yet included in the most recent compilation, visit the Farm 2 Fly program page to view all datasets. The date of update/submission is indicated in the title of the file.

Resource Title: Feedstock Readiness Level Evaluations Summary Table v4.0 - Q1&2. File Name: FSRL_Evaluations_Summary_Table_Q2_2018.csvResource Description: As of June 2018: This document summarizes all available databases on the Farm2Fly repository at the Ag Data Commons to enable users to find, identify, and compare among evaluations. Contains graph and grid-enabled data for data visualization. Categories for comparison include Feedstock, Process, and Region, crossed with Ratings for Production, Market, Policy, Linkage, and Overall Score. Ratings are based on the Feedstock Readiness Level scale (1-9), with higher values indicating greater maturity of the process. The Overall Score reflects the least mature of the four assessment areas within a given evaluation.
