Hemp Biodiesel Fuel
Biofuel is a
fuel that is produced over a short time span from
biomass, rather than by the very slow natural processes involved in the formation of
fossil fuels such as oil.
[1] Biofuel can be produced from plants or from agricultural, domestic or industrial
bio waste.

[7] Biofuels (and
bio energy in general) are regarded as a
renewable energy source.
[8]: 11 The use of biofuel has been subject to criticism regarding the "
food vs fuel" debate, varied assessments of their
sustainability, and ongoing
deforestation and
biodiversity loss as a result of biofuel production.
