Explanation:

The Lignocellulosic biomass (or LC biomass) refers to plant biomass that is composed of carbohydrate polymers (cellulose, hemicellulose),and an aromatic polymer (lignin). It is the most abundantly available raw material on the Earth for the production of biofuels, mainly bio-ethanol.It is in news recently because the Union Cabinet has approved the "PradhanMantri JI-VAN (JaivIndhan- VatavaranAnukoolfasalawasheshNivaran) Yojana" for providing financial support to Integrated Bioethanol Projects using lignocellulosic biomass and other renewable feedstock.
