But in NZ biofuel will be produced from tallow and whey, both of which are byproducts of their respective industries , and already available in large quantities. We do not need to grow special crops for biofuel. Whey in particular is actually a disposal problem within the dairy industry. That is why the bbuilt the reparoa plant to turn it into alcohol. Even if they gave the alocohol away they were still ahead of the game because the conversion process was the cheapest way of disposing of the waste whey.
