Biofuels ban can save world from looming food crisis?

Islamabad: The Pakistan Economy Watch (PEW) on Friday said an immediate ban on biofuel production can save the world from looming food crisis which can result in massive malnutrition, starvation, and riots.

The worst drought in 50 years in the US and lack of rains in India and some other countries has left global food market highly vulnerable, it said.

Now, it has become evident that the most advanced agricultural systems are subject to the weather which if become unfriendly can lead to severe grain shocks, said Dr. Murtaza Mughal, President PEW.
All the countries especially US should revisit politically attractive policies like reduced dependence on fossil fuel to care for the hungry mouths around the world, he said.
