Overview
"The study aims to
- assess the economic and market potential of biofuels to identify promising areas for investment in rural development;
- assess the adequacy of current technologies for the development of biofuels;
- identify needs for research and development, training, and investment in human capacity; and
- review current policies that promote biofuel development and identify the most effective policy levers to strengthen public–private partnerships, encourage investment, and promote cross-border trade."
