That's because people DON'T pay reasonable prices for their food.
Bio-fuels are food security. It raises the price of food to reasonable
levels, so farmers can produce it.

Diesel oil costs 1EUR30 (because of taxes), soya-oil 60ct. This tells
us, people prefer driving over eating.

(1liter diesel is burned in 10minutes, the liter of soya oil lasts
weeks)
