Large-Scale Production of Biofuel
By genetically engineering certain crops, there is potential to produce biofuels commercially. Additionally:
- Producing biofuels can decrease the world's dependence on petroleum fuel.
- Using biofuels can alleviate environmental contamination from fossil fuel production and use.
- Farming bioenergy crops could improve rural economies.
- Establishing sustainability for the biofuel sector can avoid costly production processes.
