Biofuel production may cause hunger

The EU's declared aim originally was to use 10 percent of the agricultural yield, to produce biofuel. The bio-ethanol industry, that has an annual 5 billion euros turnover, produces a good income for the European farmers, and increases the crop prices. However, these two factors deprive supply of food aid and can cause lack of food at the poorest inhabitants of the world – reports piacesprofit.hu., after Reuters.
