In order to realise the ultimate goal of this project to identify
technical opportunities and research needs for improved biofuel
production in LA, this consortium brings together expert organisations
which have the capacity to address all aspects connected to an improved
and sustainable management of feedstock and biofuel production in Latin
America. The BioTop project will contribute to achieving this goal
through the support of research activities in Latin America and through
increasing awareness about EU-LA collaboration opportunities.
