Title: Biofuels and Agriculture: A Fact Sheet for Farmers

Abstract

American farmers have a great opportunity, now and in the coming years, to help make the nation more self-sufficient in energy, and to reduce air pollution, including emissions of greenhouse gases. Advances in technologies for making biofuels like ethanol and biodiesel mean that new markets are opening up. These can provide extra farm income, help to revitalize rural communities, and improve the environment at the same time.
