Sweet Sorghum : an alternative energy crop (SWEETFUEL)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

Increasing world market prices for fossil fuels, driven by limited reserves, growing demand and instability in producing regions, now render renewable fuels economical. Such fuels are also a pathway to reducing GHG emissions and mitigating climate change. Bio-ethanol from crop plants is a promising, partial solution to sustainably satisfy the energy demand for road transport. The success of bio-et ...

"Future Crops for Food, Feed, Fiber and Fuel" (4F CROPS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2010,

"As different sectors – food, feed, fiber, and fuels – compete for land, the yielding potential of the future non-food crops has to be as efficient as possible in order to minimize the competition for land. The main objective of the proposed 4F CROPS is to survey and analyse all the parameters that will play an important role in successful non-food cropping systems in the agriculture of EU27 along ...
