Sustainable Biofuel and Food Production: Methodology and Recommendations for Tropical Belt Development

This report outlines a comprehensive methodology for evaluating and recommending projects aimed at sustainable biofuel and food production within the Tropical Belt. It encompasses feasibility studies, zoning assessments (agro-climatic, edapho-climatic, and social), and business model frameworks. The analysis identifies potential feedstocks, production capacities, and necessary infrastructure while addressing environmental and social considerations. By synergizing small rural producers with industrial efforts, the methodology aims to promote economic growth, energy security, and environmental preservation.

Presentation Transcript

  1. METHODOLOGY Recommendation of projects Phase III 1.5 - 3 years Production capacity Phase II 8 - 12 months Suitability for growing bio-fuels and food Phase I 7 months

  2. METHODOLOGY Phase I – Feasability Study Suitability for bio-fuels and food Production Capacity Recommendation Phase II • ZONINGS • Agro-climatic • Edapho-climatic • Environmental • Social • BUSINESS MODEL • Potential feedstock • Production layouts • RESULTS • Investments • Regulations • Infrastructure • Environmental issues

  3. METHODOLOGY Phase I – Zonings Agro-climatic zoning Edaphic zoning rainfall wetlands soils water deficit evapotranspiration average temperature relief rivers Social zoning Environmental zoning administrative regions population protected areas biodiversity ethnics anthropic areas

  4. METHODOLOGY Agriculturalzoning Use andcoverage Land use analysis Location of the areas of interest for field work

  5. METHODOLOGY Agricultural zoning Use and coverage CHECKING ON SITE Forest areas Family farming areas Business farming areas

  6. METHODOLOGY Agriculturalzoning Use andcoverage Potential areas validation • Degraded areas • Relief • Suitable soils • Existing projects • Rural diagnoses • Existing crops • Infrastructure analysis • Cultivation forms • Use and coverage • Field evidence

  7. METHODOLOGY Phase II – Data Book Project Data Book Road Show Phase III • SUB-PROJECTS • Transfer of know-how & technology • Agriculture • Industrial • Social • Financial • Environmental • Legal & Regulatory • Marketing • COMPILATION • Sustainable projects • Involvement of stakeholders • INVESTORS • Private Sector

  8. TROPICAL BELT Conclusion: Production of biofuels and food is the way forward to secure the development of the countries of the tropical belt • Building of production chains which include the small rural producers • Generation of income: access to health and education • Training of labor force • Preservation of the environment (advanced techniques) • Reduce outside dependence and expand energy security • Creation of strong currency (exports)

  9. PROJECTS • Agro-industry produces a demand for materials from other sectors: machinery and equipment, tractors, agricultural tools, silos, agricultural defenses, fertilizers etc.
