        | What        is the biggest challenge facing the Latin American biofuels industry in        the short term (1-3 years)? Latin American countries (other than Brazil) need to        create and consolidate their biofuels industry in order to supply local        markets and to become key players in the international market.  What is the biggest challenge for the industry        longer term (3-10 years)? Working on further research and development of        non-traditional energy crops that can be used for the production of        biofuels.  How do you see the region's growth prospects for a)        biodiesel and b) ethanol? The production of biodiesel and bioethanol in Latin        America will grow dramatically in the near future, particularly given the        fact that the region includes countries that are the main producers        worldwide of the various feedstocks needed for production.  In your opinion - In 2010 renewable fuels will make up        X% of total road transport fuels 3% Miguel is amongst the speakers at        Biofuels Markets Americas, View Agenda l Register Now
