One French company named Cirad (Assessing the economic, social and environmental impact of using crop residues, by-products and processing waste to generate energy) proposes notable scientific and technical information products and services in the fields of agriculture and development in tropical, subtropical, and Mediterranean regions.
Specifically aiming to design sustainable biomass production systems tailored to an arising situation for particular rural communities, where access to energy poses a mighty problem. This allows for quick development like using lignocellulose biomass,wood and crop residues– for generating varying types of energy output and currently, the agronomic potential of several plants; such as jatropha, cotton, groundnut, soybean, sorghum and sugarcane wherein hopes of biomassive energies are stored and yet to be recognized.
However, devoting our agriculture to producing such forms of energy raises risks for developing countries if it is practised at the expense of food production.
The research centre is fully dedicated alone in adapting and optimizing earth's existing production systems for energy and fuel (ie: woody forest species) or for a dual purpose (ie: sugarcane), so as to boost regional and potential economies.

Creating new production systems devoted to bioenergy including jatropha, a tropical shrub from which oil can be extracted for varietal breeding or improvement operatives in the eucalyptus, oil palm, sugarcanes, or sorghum genus.
How can bioenergy production be combined with food production without competing with it you may ask?
Devoted analysing specifically conducive to environmental impacts and ecological services is the ultimate invention. Building integrated management tools and methods, combining socio-economic and technical approaches, sending for research on impactful food production and markets, or common resource management conflicts, enumerant through social and economic development.
Of the lesser pollutant Cirad is specialized in thermochemical and fermentation processing. Which in turn enables a fine tuning of agri-chain practices, post harvest techniques, and integrative systems.
