biofuel Crop yield
Duckweeds are amongst the fastest growing of higher plants, making them attractive high-biomass targets for biofuel feedstock production. Their fronds have high rates...
Scientists drive oil accumulation in rapidly growing aquatic plants
The EU has a historical deficit of plant protein and is heavily reliant on imports (from the US and Latin America) to sustain domestic livestock production. Using an economic model...
The OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook provides an assessment of the prospects of national, regional and global agricultural commodity markets over the coming decade. The baseline projections for production, consumption, stocks...
Comparative review of three approaches to biofuel production from energy crops as feedstock in a developing country
This study is a comparative evaluation of three approaches to biofuel production from energy crops including biogas, bioethanol and biodiesel to ascertain which one is the most effective and more energy-efficient...
Biomass price developments inhibit biofuel investments and research in Germany: The crucial future role of high yields
The competitiveness of conventional and advanced (second generation) biofuels is a critical issue for the implementation of a sustainable transport strategy. We model biofuel competition under different feedstock cost...
This paper provides a resource-based assessment of the available agricultural crop residues for bioenergy production in the European Union, at the level of the 27 Member States. The assessment provides the amount of the residues...
