This book evaluates maize as a bioenergy fuel source from two
perspectives. It explores whether the input energy needed to
generate fuel significantly exceeded by the energy harvested. In
examining this issue, the chapters provide assessments of the
social, economic, and political impact on fuel pricing, food costs,
and the environmental challenge with corn biomass the engine of
change. It then examines whether corn be genetically improved so
that its biomass is significantly increased, its cellulose-lignin
complex made more amenable to harvesting and to processing, and
grown in regions not normally associated with its cultivation of
food.
