It’s not just growth but the right stuff to turn into ethanol........If it was just growth, kudzu would be perfect........

We don’t have kudzu, but we have vetch. Bumper crop this year. Totally useless but looks nice from a distance of 200 yards.

Ethanol is a terrible fuel. And with current technology, plants high in sugar or starch would be best. I doubt that any of the grasses would be good for it.
