With over 40 years of experience in the field of plant propagation and production, Speedling brings its considerable expertise and resources to the field of dedicated Energy Crops. Our organizational strengths include multiple locations of significant size all with excellent growing conditions along with years of experience in plant propagation. As one of the pioneers in the field of plug production, we already have an established system to reliably produce and deliver our products. All of this adds up to Speedling being able to quickly and consistently supply our customers with their crop needs with both high quality as well as high volume.

Over the past several years, Speedling has established itself as the leading propagator of Miscanthus x giganteus in North America. Our extensive research in multiple propagation methods has resulted in the ability to deliver high volumes of field-ready plugs with consistent quality. In addition, our experience with these plants in fields in the southeast, mid-west and central states has given us great advantages in producing plugs that not only do well in the greenhouse, but flourish in the field.

Speedling is actively involved in research and development projects with various universities and biomass related companies to develop new varieties of dedicated energy crops as well as vertically-integrated biomass projects.
