''The cost of biodiesel is reduced substantially if energy crops were
produced overseas. The UK-based company D1 Oils is developing huge
plantations of jatropha trees (Jatropha Curcas), a non-edible oil
crop, all over the third world (The new biofuel republics?, this
series). But this approach will do nothing to improve energy supply
security for Europe.

Not only that, it would wreak havoc on food production in third world
countries, already reeling from the globalised food trade.''
