      abstract     = {Current global temperature increases resulting from human
                      activity threaten many ecosystems and societies, and have
                      led to international and national policy commitments that
                      aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Bioenergy crops
                      provide one means of reducing greenhouse gas emissions from
                      energy production and two novel crops that could be used for
                      this purpose are Sida hermaphrodita (L.) Rusby and Silphium
                      perfoliatum L. This research examined the existing
                      scientific literature available on both crops through a
                      systematic review. The data were collated according to the
                      agronomy, uses, and environmental benefits of each crop.
                      Possible challenges were associated with high initial
                      planting costs, low yields in low rainfall areas, and for
                      Sida hermaphrodita, vulnerability to Sclerotinia
                      sclerotiorum. However, under appropriate environmental
                      conditions, both crops were found to provide large yields
                      over sustained periods of time with relatively low levels of
                      management and could be used to produce large energy
                      surpluses, either through direct combustion or biogas
                      production. Other potential uses included fodder, fibre, and
                      pharmaceutical uses. Environmental benefits included the
                      potential for phytoremediation, and improvements to soil
                      health, biodiversity, and pollination. The review also
                      demonstrated that environmental benefits, such as
                      pollination, soil health, and water quality benefits could
                      be obtained from the use of Sida hermaphrodita and Silphium
                      perfoliatum relative to existing bioenergy crops such as
                      maize, whilst at the same time reducing the greenhouse gas
                      emissions associated with energy production. Future research
                      should examine the long-term implications of using Sida
                      hermaphrodita and Silphium perfoliatum as well as improve
                      knowledge on how to integrate them successfully within
                      existing farming systems and supply chains.},
