February 26, 2001U.S. looks to bio-based products to help farmers Bio-based fuels and products will undoubtedly shape the future of American agriculture, but for the young market to enter the mainstream will require significant promotion and funding efforts, industry leaders said on Friday.

"We are simply at the beginning of a new era that could be extremely important to American agriculture," said Marvin Duncan, an economist at the USDA.
