Abstract: This report is part of the process entitled ‘Fuelling knowledge on the social and ecological impacts of agrofuels production’, which is being carried out within the framework of the Development Policy Review Network (DPRN) and implemented by the Agrofuels Platform. The report has three main objectives. First, it outlines the positions of the various stakeholders in order to understand the motives for their decisions. Second, it presents some of the available data related to the effects of biofuel production, derived mostly from academic publications. Third, it reflects on some of the most debated issues and the type of information that appears to be needed to improve decision making.
