Several, the answers generally reflecting who funded the study.
The studies done by big oil or the hater groups say bio-d is terrible and uses
as much energy as it brings in. They'll study using soy oil grown in the desert
with intensive irrigation using deep well pumps and plowed fields.
Its cool to read somebody who knows something about it when they say its
complicated.
The interesting thing in this is seeing folks make bio-d out of regionally
available sources rather than just growing soy... I'd like to see the same
thing with ethanol like how they use sugar cane in Brazil.
