Use of U.S. Croplands for Biofuels Increases Greenhouse Gases Through Emissions from Land-Use Change
Tim Searchinger,Ralph E. Heimlich,Richard A. Houghton,Fengxia Dong,Amani Elobeid,Jacinto F. Fabiosa,Simla Tokgoz,Dermot J. Hayes,Tun-Hsiang Yu +8 more
TL;DR: This article found that corn-based ethanol, instead of producing a 20% savings, nearly doubled greenhouse emissions over 30 years and increased greenhouse gases for 167 years, by using a worldwide agricultural model to estimate emissions from land-use change.

Use of U.S. Croplands for Biofuels Increases Greenhouse Gases Through Emissions from Land-Use Change
Tim Searchinger,Ralph E. Heimlich,Richard A. Houghton,Fengxia Dong,Amani Elobeid,Jacinto F. Fabiosa,Simla Tokgoz,Dermot J. Hayes,Hun-Hsiang Yu +8 more
TL;DR: It is found that corn-based ethanol nearly doubles greenhouse emissions over 30 years and increases greenhouse gases for 167 years, which raises concerns about large biofuel mandates and highlights the value of using waste products.

Emerging Biofuels: Outlook of Effects on U.S. Grain, Oilseed, and Livestock Markets
Simla Tokgoz,Amani Elobeid,Jacinto F. Fabiosa,Dermot J. Hayes,Bruce A. Babcock,Tun-Hsiang Yu,Fengxia Dong,Chad E. Hart,John C. Beghin +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the impacts of higher oil prices, a drought combined with an ethanol mandate, and removal of land from the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) relative to baseline projections are also presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensitivity of Carbon Emission Estimates from Indirect Land-Use Change
Jerome Dumortier,Dermot J. Hayes,Miguel Carriquiry,Fengxia Dong,Xiaodong Du,Amani Elobeid,Jacinto F. Fabiosa,Simla Tokgoz +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, an agricultural projection and greenhouse gas model are used to assess the impact of global cropland expansion on carbon emissions and the sensitivity of those estimates to modifications in assumptions concerning idle croplands, the degree of refinement in carbon coefficients, market responses, and yield increase.

Land Allocation Effects of the Global Ethanol Surge: Predictions from the International FAPRI Model
Jacinto F. Fabiosa,John C. Beghin,John C. Beghin,Fengxia Dong,Amani Elobeid,Simla Tokgoz,Tun-Hsiang Yu +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors quantify the emergence of biofuel markets and its impact on U.S. and world agriculture for the coming decade using the multi-market multi-commodity international FAPRI model.
