Worldwide dependence on fossil fuels and the environmental impact has been of great concern for some time. Bio-fuel alternatives such as biodiesel and ethanol have shown promise in helping to reduce that dependency. As the second largest country in the Caribbean there is ample land in Dominican Republic to support agricultural ventures to grow bio-fuel crops.

Huge Parcels of Land in Dominican Republic are Available

Although many of the very sizable sugar cane plantations have not been in use recently, they can be acquired and begin producing again for the conversion into ethanol. Also, large parcels of land in Dominican Republic can produce biodiesel crops such as jatropha and others. Other factors such as favorable government incentives and proximity to all markets in the Americas contribute to the Dominican Republic’s desirability for bio-fuel production investments.
