Biofuel can be produced by using some of the crops especially corn. The demand of biofuel is increased which is because of biofuel is used as an alternative source of fuel. This is because of the fuel supplies are depleted caused by worse climate. Therefore‚ when the demand of biofuels increase‚ it also soared the price of food‚ especially corn. PART A (i). Analyze the impacts of increased demand for biofuels on the demand for and price of crops such as corn. Recently‚ demand of biofuels

Research has been done to suggest that the GM plants are harming the natural organisms in the environment. The crops have harmful effects on some insects such as death‚ mutated offspring‚ and a change in lifespan. These crops have been claimed toxic and
