[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 343563, member: 927"] Sober, I think its an important and interesting topic. However, I attended a conference recently and reviewed some research on biofuel. I don't remember all the details, but the conclusion from the university research was that about 17% of our needs could be met with biofuel. They also analyzed the efficiency of soy vs. corn. Corn was a clear winner in the amount of resources needed to produce fuel. I think another question will be how much land and water we can devote to biofuel. If resources (land / water) are used for fuel, will this impact food prices. Who knows, this demand may make farming profitable again. P-Man [/QUOTE]
