Phase III
Conclusion: Production of biofuels and food is
the way forward to secure the development of
the countries of the tropical belt
TROPICAL BELT
Building of production chains which include the small rural producers Generation of income: access to health and education Training of labor force Preservation of the environment (advanced techniques)
Reduce outside dependence and expand energy security
Creation of strong currency (exports)
