The main activity of Biofuels is the large scale production and exploitation of biodiesel and glycerine following the construction and commissioning of the initial plant.
Biodiesel is produced from vegetable oils and, as an environmentally friendly product, can make a significant contribution towards reducing green house gases and meeting Kyoto targets.

am on a similar wavelength of thinking stockdog.....
as DOO has the plantations, but does not seem to have enough refineries (those little things - albeit portable; compared to BFC's massive one) - although i think that they have stated that their plantations are also for the sale of the jatropha seeds...
if BFC was to use DOO's jatropha then it would simply be a matter of whether BFC could make enough after paying a "competitor" for it's fuel supply; and whether DOO would make enough out of selling some of it's jatropha (rather then processing it themselves) to a competitor....
the rape seed oil is too expensive, and even with massive tax concessions is still up there in terms of cost; i read in an 'australian renewable fuels' prospectus that palm oil was not good for colder climates (??) = european winters ??......and DOO seems to be pushing it's jatropha all over the world, leading one to think that it has already been well and truly tested.....
would make a lot of sense and perhaps even create a medium term biodiesel monopoly if the 2 teamed up firmly; such as DOO buying a sizable chunk of BFC, and perhaps having BFC to build another one or two massive refineries (such as the one in UK) in Europe, and then BFC supply europe with biodiesel made from DOO's jatropha.......whilst DOO continues placing it's smaller portable refineries in countries of smaller population etcetc.....
although tis just my imagination wandering - stranger things have happened.....

belisce6 - maybe we should just do the obvious and write to them - "from where we're sitting it looks like you should merge - have you thought about it?"
I think I'll do just that - at worst they can treat me like some sort of crank and politely ignore me.

Looks like 67p did provide a bottom for the time being.

A director has bought 400,000 shares! He's obviously confident!

Let's hope we've bottomed on this one and they can hit their latest target for once by the next RNS.

Can it go any further? How much?
You need 10% rise to start making any oprofit. 78-82= 4p loss

BTW - today I emailed Philip Wood at DOO and Sean Sutcliffe at BFC suggesting they consider a merger of their two companies.
I'll let you know the response.

Did you remember to tell them that you and me should be appointed directors of the new company on considerable salary + share options?

belisce6 - the day you get close enough to smell my breath, I'll brush my teeth for you. Till then I'm just as happy to go by my chosen name which is stockdog if it's all the same to you.
Anyway, unfounded rumour be blowed - I am fully founded and it's no rumour, but a concrete suggestion that I truly believe would have immense value for us all.

'The plant remains on track, operational in August 2005 and in full production by the end of September 2005'
Quoted from their website and with an updated picture of progress.
