The present disclosure relates, according to some embodiments, to a method of continuously supplying a harvested biomass comprising a floating aquatic plant species to a processing facility. The method includes cultivating a microcrop (e.g., a floating aquatic plant species) in a bioreactor system, harvesting the microcrop to generate the harvested biomass, and conveying the harvested biomass to a first position of a harvest canal to form a conveyed biomass. A harvest canal may include a trough configured to contain the conveyed biomass in a volume of a medium and a propulsion mechanism configured to impart a motion on the first medium such that the harvested biomass may be transported from the first position to the second position within the harvest canal. The harvest canal may be positioned adjacent to an outer perimeter of bioreactor system and form an infinity loop. The method may further include activating the propulsion mechanism to impart motion on the first medium and propel the harvested biomass from the first position to the second position, and transferring at least a portion of the propelled biomass from the second position of the harvest canal to a processing facility.
