US bio energy company Viaspace signs in Burma to grow Giant King Grass

I think I've seen this grass grown as an ornamental.
Ready yourself to hear more stories of farmers losing land.
The Viaspace site says this giant grass is not invasive, but they are hardly a "reliable witness." Photo shows grass hand cut in China, by low paid labor?
