I'm skeptical of biodiesel and whether mandating use will boost the agricultural sector and reduce greenhouse gases. I've seen several conflicting reports on the environmental impact especially around oil-seed based fuel production. But what about the economic impact of mandating 2% biodiesel blends - will this help to boost prices and profits for Manitoba's growers? From what I can tell so far, their best shot at the benefits is to own a piece of the processing.
Another benefit is awareness - which can only help. What do you think - help or non-starter?
I found the Canadian Canola Grower's Association to be a good source of information at www.ccga.ca
