The analysis here shows how adding values from improved water quality due to growing perennial feedstocks can decrease the break-even price for the feedstock biomass. In the first graph(s) we show quantiles for SWAT-derived HRUs (crops, subbasins etc.) that have associated values to water drinkers (avoided cost of treatment) and recreational users of water bodies (e.g., swimmers and waders).

The second analysis here takes the quantity of supply that is represented by each SWAT unit into account in the ranking.
