The impact of bioenergy crops on land use and food security
Author(s): Julia Fischer
Abstract: The increasing demand for renewable energy sources has driven the expansion of bioenergy crops. While bioenergy offers a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, its cultivation has significant implications for land use and food security. This review paper examines the current state of knowledge on the impact of bioenergy crops on land use and food security, drawing from a comprehensive analysis of previous studies. It highlights the trade-offs between bioenergy production and food production, explores the environmental consequences of land-use changes, and discusses policy frameworks aimed at balancing energy and food needs.
