2007/06 296 page 20 numéro 6 Renner, Rebecca | Jatropha [atatra] seems to offer the benefits of biofuels without the pitfalls. The plants favor hot, dry conditions and hence are unlikely to threaten rain forests. There is no trade-off between food and fuel either, because the oil is poisonous... matching plants to growing conditions and maximizing oil yields... small-scale efforts based on hedges or intercropping jatropha with other plants -- a method used in projects in Kenya and Madagascar, where jatropha is planted alongside vanilla. |
