I hear negative things about ethanol; how are energy crops different?
Most of the news coverage about ethanol is directed at ethanol made from corn starch, and unfortunately, a lot of it is inaccurate or uses outdated information. See Ethanol Myths. Biofuels made from new sources, such as dedicated energy crops, have numerous economic and environmental advantages. For instance, these crops require fewer passes through the field, and can yield more fuel per acre.
