Biofuel and the World Agricultural Outlook

From The Guardian: "Food prices will rise in the next 10 years as nearly twice as much sugar cane, maize and oilseed rape is grown to fuel cars, and people in rapidly developing countries adopt meat-based diets, says the UN in its annual assessment of farming trends."

The report, "OECD-FAO Agricultural Outlook 2007-2016," was produced by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations. The OECD press release offers a summary of the report.
