✦ Synopsis

Fuel ethanol from agricultural crops, 'bioethanol', is more expensive than petrol. The authors consider ways to reduce ethanol costs, by using mixed 'crops to extend the processing-season and by optimising plant capacity. They derived a simple model of general applicability by balancing crop transport costs (which increase wtth plant size) against the (decreasing) production costs.
