Is there competition between biomass use for food, feed and bioplastics production?

Bioplastics are predominantly produced from agro-based feedstock (i.e., plants that are rich in carbohydrates) which is currently the most efficient way to produce bioplastics, as it requires the least amount of land to grow and produces the highest yields. The huge difference between the land used for bioplastics and that for food, feed, and [...]

Constance Ißbrücker, Head of Environmental Affairs, EUBP The consequences of climate change and the finite nature of fossil resources constitute two broadly acknowledged challenges for society in the decades to come. Bioplastics, which are derived fully or at least in part from renewable resources, have the unique advantage over conventional plastics to [...]
