The biofuels and alternative energy project models that were originally based on feedstock materials from the food chain commodities have been shown to a failure, something many already knew.Not only did they add to the upward pressures on food chain commodities, especially corn and soyoil, they brought added deforestation pressures in several developing economies.Additional fertilizers and pressures on already low water supplies in some areas were additional exacerbations to the equation.The new generation of feedstock for biofuel production will be from nonfood chain sources and will add new benefits into the biofuel equation.
