This is particularly relevant when assessing the nutritional value of grass genotypes and their chemical suitability for biofermentation/biofuel.
The unique value of inulin and the tuber in human and animal diets, and for biofuel uses are explained.
One alternative consisted of producing biofuel for traction from rapeseed on the farm using a low-technology method suitable for individual farms (scenario 2).
This could change, as suggested by the rapid and widespread impacts of biofuel development on food prices, and thus food security and the poor.
The use of a biofuel crop within an integrated system adds not only to farm diversity but also is of great importance to the rural community.
International trade, biofuel initiatives reshaping the soybean sector.
The addition of biofuels enables immediate reduction in pollution thanks to their zero sulphur compound content and their capacity to improve combustion.
We must take care to maintain the balance between the development of biofuels and food security, especially in these critical times.
