Food safety rural areas, development

At the heart of current debate on biofuels markets, the development of rural areas and food safety issues are of great concern. When considering the nexus between biofuels and rural development, four main aspects are representative in current hterature (1) social benefits of biofuels policy (2) food security versus land management (3) public sector intervention and (4) the enhancement of second-generation biofuels from non-food crops. Dufey (2006) offers a comprehensible tour of social benefits of biofuels production accruing in developing as well as developed countries. Recently, Raman et al. (2015) add social values to biofuels production.
