My point was that perhaps there is already some confusion about biomass fuel
being something that takes years to grow, and food being something that
grows in a single summer.
Switchgrass helps. It is obviously a fuel and grows in a single season.
Instead of talking about 'burning food' we should talk about 'dual use'
biomass.
