Biomass
Waste outputs and treatment are central operational obligations. Include them in expansion plans where their chains appear; a materials-only shopping list cannot establish pollution compliance.
Plan this output ahead of projects that use it, including Compost. Its 1 recorded downstream use(s) help reveal where one stockpile can support several goals; that is a recipe relationship, not a popularity claim.
When it fits: Add it to a project when one of its listed downstream targets is on your plan; combine quantities across those targets before choosing a production run.
The tradeoff: One source recipe run makes 4 and lists 4 Tree sapling at Shredder; 1 recipe variant(s) for this output are grouped together. Verify access where the pack is incomplete.
