Impacts of first-generation biofuels on agricultural prices
Year:
2012
Author:
Nieves Lopez Izquierdo
Description:
This figure outlines possible scenarios for the impact
of biofuels on agricultural prices and food security.
Although there are several factors that affect agricultural prices, including seasonal variation, market speculation,and extreme weather patterns, some biofuel development
scenarios indicate a relationship between agricultural
prices and biofuel production. Here, the scenario projects
that the largest price increase will be for cereals, with the
introduction of rst-generation biofuels triggering a price increase ranging from 8 percent to over 35 percent.
