Biofuels and Food Security: Implications of an Accelerated Biofuels Production (2009, background): “What evidence there is shows a wide range of yields that cannot be linked to relevant parameters such as soil fertility and water availability (Jongschaap et al., 2007).”
Biology and genetic improvement of Jatropha curcas L.: A review (2010, background): “Improved varieties with desirable traits for specific growing conditions are not available, which makes growing jatropha a risky business [13].”
Satisfying future water demands for agriculture (2010, background): “However, additional research is needed regarding the water productivity of nontraditional crops (Jongschaap et al., 2007).”
Biofuel developments in Mozambique. Update and analysis of policy, potential and reality (2010, background): “Recent studies indicate a maximum of 2.72 t Jatropha oil haÿ1 yrÿ1, calculated on the basis of full radiation, high temperatures and year-round canopy cover, no limitations due to lack of water or nutrients, and the absence of plagues and diseases (Jongschaap et al., 2007, 28).”
Second-Generation Biofuels: Economics and Policies (2010, background): “While non-edible, its oil could be burnt directly or processed into biodiesel, which makes it especially attractive for remote rural areas (Jongschaap et al 2007).”
Global developments in the competition for land from biofuels (2011, background): “It is likely that novel 2G (and 1G) crops, such as Jatropha curcas, Buddleja davidii, and bamboos, which have good adaption to growth on less favoured land will also find use, although crop yields will need to be above a minimum threshold to enable positive carbon balances over a number of years (Sc”
