FYI to the folks that get into this W-SARE project, as well as others,
may be interested to know about the following resource on bamboo
production:

ATTRA, the national sustainable farming information center
located at the University of Arkansas, has a practical
resource package on bamboo production and marketing.

It contains a summary of bamboo production; lists key books,
newsletters, and organizations; and includes an extensive
survey of literature on bamboo in temperate climates.

ATTRA's # is 1-800-346-9140
