Biofuels, food and feed conference

13-03-2007 | Home | News

The expanding biofuels industry is a global phenomenon impacting agriculture production and processing from China to Brazil. Global perspectives on the industry’s implications for production agriculture, the food industry and the feed industry are one part of Farm Foundation’s April 12-13 conference, Biofuels, Food and Feed Tradeoffs.

Designed to broaden understanding of the potential
scenarios for the future, this conference will feature projections for the
domestic biofuels industry, as well as analysis of the global biofuels industry
and the potential impacts on food and feed.

The conference will feature
findings of research done by industry, academia and the federal government on
the diversity and complexity of opportunities and challenges generated by the
nation’s biofuels industry. The conference will also highlight on-going research
in four broad areas of challenges related to biofuels, food and feed:
production, distribution and logistics; environmental; co-products; and the
global food supply.
