However, although the renewable alcohols can be produced from agricultural byproducts (cereal straw, sugarcane bagasse) the economics are even more unfavorable given the complex manufacturing process that includes fermentation and distillation.
Precision farming applications promise to conserve energy and reduce agricultural inputs but much remains to be done before these claims can be sustained and the technology commercialized at an affordable price to the farmer. Further exciting developments in farm machinery are under way with particular emphasis on communications and information technology applications.
