Brazil rebuffs biofuels food threat
Wire services
Brazil has rejected a United Nations body’s claim that a global increase in biofuel production threatens to make food for Latin America's poor less accessible.
"In the short term, it is very probable that the rapid expansion of agrofuels at a world level has important effects on Latin America's agriculture," the UN's Food & Agriculture Organisation (FAO) said in a paper released yesterday.
Growing biofuel output would compete with food crops for water, land and capital and thereby increase food prices and "put at risk access to food by the poorest sectors", the FAO said in a report presented at its conference for Latin America and the Caribbean.
It is the latest in a wave of criticism that has questioned the environmental and social benefits of biofuels and put major producers like Brazil on the defensive.
Meanwhile, Brazil’s finance minister rejected the idea, saying that this is a problem restricted to the US.
"It endangers (food production) here in the US, but not in Brazil, not in African countries, not in Latin American countries, which have enough land to produce both" food and biofuels, Reuters quoted Guido Mantega as telling journalists in New York.
Representatives from oil-rich Venezuela and its regional allies Bolivia, Nicaragua and Cuba harshly criticised biofuels at yesterday's conference.
"Without food safety (for the poor) we can't even think about biofuels ... it could create enormous food deficits and social unrest," Gerardo Rojas, Venezuela's vice-minister for rural development, told the FAO meeting.
It is unacceptable for poor countries, which account for only 15% of the world's cars, to produce clean fuels for the rich, said Cuban representative Juan Arsenio Quintero.
"We could all save hundreds of millions of dollars and not use a single hectare (of land) with energy efficiency measures," Quintero said.
The criticism is a setback for Brazil, which is trying to spread biofuels production in Latin America and Africa as a tool to end rural poverty by helping small-scale farmers.
Jose Antonio Marcondes Carvalho, Brazil's FAO representative, sought to play down the criticism, saying biofuel production occupied only 1% of Brazil's land.
"The real issue is poverty and poor income distribution," Marcondes said, calling on governments to step up social welfare policies.
Mexico called on biofuel critics to present more evidence and Argentina presented its own plans to increase biofuels, citing large potential benefit for its farmers.
