EU biofuel aid 'inflates food cost'
European Union support for biofuel production could force the price of food crop staples up by as much as 36% by the end of the decade, a report has warned.
Development charity ActionAid warned that the allocation of ever-growing acres of farmland to producing crops for fuel was already a "major contributor to world hunger" and could make the problem worse in the years to come.
