Biomass is an organic resource used as a sustainable fuel source for the [bio generator](@oritech:bio_generator_block).
It is also a key ingredient in the production of [biosteel](@oritech:biosteel_ingot).

You can get biomass by processing organic materials such as plants, crops, and saplings in a [pulverizer](@oritech:pulverizer_block).

Biomass can also be used as emergency food,
though it is not very appetizing and has effects similar to a poisonous potato.
It is also highly compostable.
