Food or Fuel
Though imports have traditionally allowed people to keep a few more gourdes in their pocket, the long term effect has been the withering of national agricultural capacity. In terms of fuel or food it is not either/or. The utterly indedible jatropha plant, for example, can be planted with food crops. It even keeps animals away. Land could be used for dual purpose planting. Dual use is not unheard of for food crops. Planting coffee under fruit trees for examples. In this case, a fuel crop and a food crop together. Thoughts?
