Impacts of biofuel production in an oil-dependent economy and agricultural reconversion
Type de matériel :
TexteLangue : français Détails de publication : 2022.
Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : In this article, we use a microsimulated computable general equilibrium model to examine the effects of cane-to-sugar biofuel production in Guadeloupe on greenhouse gas emissions, growth, and monetary poverty. This biomass is produced by farmers who face off against “manufacturers” in a cooperative negotiation over the price of cane. The results show that biofuel development would reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce dependence on fossil fuels, and diversify agricultural opportunities for cane growers. However, the effects on monetary poverty in this oil-dependent economy would be negative.
