Energy usage- What makes Sense? AfrICANDO 2008 Charles LaPradd Agricultural Manager Miami-Dade County

Agriculture is the basis of our sustainability and can assist communities in completing the cycle of use and re-use. From cultivation to consumption much energy is used and from that cultivation much energy can be produced.

Agro-Energy Ethanol Bio-Diesel Biomass

Ethanol Sugars Starches Sugar cane, sorghum and beets Cassava (manioc), yams and potatoes V. Ryan © 2006

Bio-Diesel Plant oils Palm, jatropha and algae © CIRAD

Biomass Stalks, algae, agricultural waste and dung Combustibles Biogas Fertilizer Warren Gretz Dr. Mary Andrews, Michigan State University

What to look for Multiple benefit crops and processes that complete the “cycle” Food Feed Fiber Fuel Fertilizer

What are we doing here? Investing in research Testing crops for cost, production value and compatibility Investing in infrastructure Fuel production facilities, algae farms and CO2 scrubbers Limited production Producing algae using fish waste and excess CO2 Biogas energy production

How to start Identify your crops and processes Create a plan Make it manageable Keep your options open Provide incentives & limit interference
