Bioethanol Association: domestic production is not responsible for the food price increases

The Hungarian Bioethanol Association (MBSZ) considers the attacks against bioethanol production qualm. The Association believes that domestic bioethanol production is not responsible for the increase in food prices.

The organization highlights in its communication sent to MTI on Friday that bioethanol production and consumption is being attacked, due to the European drought and the rise in global food prices.

According to the Hungarian Bioethanol Association (MBSZ), the situation is very different in Hungary than worldwide. Héjj Demeter, President of the Association added that “in Hungary biofuel industry does not take the bread away from the hungry instead of providing a stable outlet for the Hungarian agriculture.” (MTI)
