Composed of lignin and monomer sugars such as glucose, fructose, arabinose, galactose, and xylose, these constituents are very valuable in their own right. To this point in history, there are some methods commonly used to coax "recalcitrant" cellulose to separate or hydrolyse into its lignin and sugar parts, treatment with; steam explosion, supercritical water, enzymes, acids and alkalines. All these methods involve heat or chemicals, are expensive, have lower conversion rates and produce waste materials. In recent years the rise of "mechanochemistry" has resulted in the use of ball mills and other mill designs to reduce cellulose to a fine powder in the presence of a catalyst, a common bentonite or kaolinite clay, that will hydrolyse the cellulose quickly and with low energy input into pure sugar and lignin. Still currently only in pilot stage, this promising technology offers the possibility that any agricultural economy might be able to get rid of its requirement to refine oil for transportation fuels. This would be a major improvement in carbon neutral energy sources and allow the continued use of internal combustion engines on a large scale.[<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"> <h4 id="Biodiesel">Biodiesel</h4> <a role="button" href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Food_vs._fuel&action=edit&section=10&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Edit section: Biodiesel" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> Soybean oil, which only represents half of the domestic raw materials available for biodiesel production in the United States, is one of many raw materials that can be used to produce biodiesel.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Food_vs._fuel?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-biodiesel.org-88">[88]</a> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Non-food_crop?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Non-food crop">Non-food crops</a> like <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Camelina?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Camelina">Camelina</a>, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Jatropha?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Jatropha">Jatropha</a>, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Seashore_mallow?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Seashore mallow">seashore mallow</a> and <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Mustard_plant?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Mustard plant">mustard</a>,<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Food_vs._fuel?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-biodiesel.org-88">[88]</a> used for biodiesel, can thrive on marginal agricultural land where many trees and crops will not grow, or would produce only slow growth yields.

Produced irresponsibly, they at best offer no climate benefit and, at worst, have detrimental social and environmental consequences. In other words, biofuels are pretty much like any other product.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Food_vs._fuel?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-112">[112]</a> </blockquote> Far from creating food shortages, responsible production and distribution of biofuels represents the best opportunity for sustainable economic prospects in Africa, Latin America and impoverished Asia. Biofuels offer the prospect of real market competition and oil price moderation. Crude oil would be trading 15 per cent higher and gasoline would be as much as 25 per cent more expensive, if it were not for biofuels. A healthy supply of alternative energy sources will help to combat gasoline price spikes.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Food_vs._fuel?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-sol-57">[57]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"> <h3 id="Continuation_of_the_status_quo">Continuation of the status quo</h3> <a role="button" href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/w/index.php?title=Food_vs._fuel&action=edit&section=17&_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Edit section: Continuation of the status quo" class="cdx-button cdx-button--size-large cdx-button--fake-button cdx-button--fake-button--enabled cdx-button--icon-only cdx-button--weight-quiet "> edit </a> </div> An additional policy option is to continue the current trends of government incentive for these types of crops to further evaluate the effects on food prices over a longer period of time due to the relatively recent onset of the biofuel production industry.

Farmers make their planting decisions based on signals from the marketplace. If demand for corn is high and projected revenue-per-acre is strong relative to other crops, farmers will plant more corn. In 2007 US farmers planted 92,900,000 acres (376,000 km2) with corn, 19% more acres than they did in 2006.</li> <li>The U.S. has doubled corn yields over the last 40 years and expects to double them again in the next 20 years. With twice as much corn from each acre, corn can be put to new uses without taking food from the hungry or causing deforestation.</li> <li>US consumers buy things like <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Corn_flakes?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Corn flakes">corn flakes</a> where the cost of the corn per box is around 5 cents.

The rest (protein, fat, vitamins and minerals) is passed through to the feed co-products or human food ingredients.</li> <li>One of the most significant and immediate benefits of higher grain prices is a dramatic reduction in federal farm support payments.
