Indirect Land Use Change Comments and Suggestions

I am attaching my thoughts on iLUC as a participant in the biofuel space over the past 20 years.

It certainly appears that most actual LUC over the past 15 years has occurred because of growing global meat consumption. That has led to the conversion of highly biodiverse land into unsustainable livestock pasture and then to cropland after the livestock sufficiently destroyed the pastureland and moved on.

The question that needs to be answered is how can biofuel policy reduce the need for unsustainable pastureland expansion? How can biofuel policy make more concentrated plant protein products available for sale internationally and switch the economics away from grass-fed finishing and into a less land intense feedlot system similar to the US.
