In relation to the part EXTREMELY briefly mentioned in this reportabout
Brazil and bio-fuel, here are some additional facts: USA's Archer,
Daniel-Midland Corporation is the LARGESTbio-fuel producer in the world
and is also the largest commercialprocessor in Brazil! The bio-fuel
international corporate conglomerate cartels havebeen forcing farmers to
accept lower and lower prices for theircontracted productions, causing
hordes of family farmers to losetheir farms because they could not live
up to their contracts!  Thefarms are then consolidated into HUGE
international corporatefarms, at the same time that those corporations
are buying themunicipal water works and charging the local populations
veryhigh rates... sometimes 10-times more... for their municipal water!The
water is then rationed so that the bio-fuel farms can get mostof it!=20
This is also happening in India! Libris Fidelis (soon to be formerly
"Ronald Kinum" which willbecome my middle name)

  COORDINATOR TRIP REPORT =96 BRAZIL

  ...//...

  Brazilian cars run on alcohol made from sugar cane =96 another story
  about agricultural land feeding cars rather than people. (Just
  like in the U.S. where corn production is now more profitable for
  ethanol than for food.)
