Enhancing the Competitive Value of US Agriculture

Accomplished Through:

  • Development of New Products
  • Improving Existing Products
  • Increasing Process Efficiency
  • Greater Use of Co-Products and Waste

Materials

Value-added Products: Biobased Products and Biofuels Production

  • Biobased industrial and consumer products

improved methods for producing existing non-food products and developing new (industrial) uses for agricultural commodities

  • Biofuels research

Focus on pretreatment, conversion, and product recovery steps that limit technical and economic efficiency of biological production of fuel.
