The present study evaluates the potential of biofuel production to promote social inclusion, assuring protection of environmental assets, food production and sustainable regional development, in the most arid and poor areas of Brazil. Reasons and consequences of low contribution of family agriculture to biofuel production are identified. Statistical analysis is based on recent official data, confirmed by several publications carried out by social organizations. Analysis is also based on technical literature published by the biofuel sector. The study shows that family agriculture may participate and benefit from biofuel production.
