Dear colleagues,

On behalf of the Guest Editor, Prof. Terence J. Centner, we would like to
renew our invitation for you to contribute an outstanding long review or full
research paper for peer-review and possible publication in the following
Special Issue:

Special Issue: Biofuels, Food Security, and Accompanying Environmental
Concerns
Website: http://www.mdpi.com/si/agriculture/biofuels_food_security/
Guest Editor: Prof. Terence J. Centner
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 31 July 2012

If you decide to contribute, please let us know, and send us your
manuscript now or up until the deadline. Submitted papers should not have
been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication
elsewhere. We also encourage authors to send us their tentative title and
short abstract by e-mail for approval to the Editorial Office at
agriculture@mdpi.com. In case you cannot meet the deadline, please feel
free to contact us.

This Special Issue will be fully open access. Open access (unlimited and
free access by readers) increases publicity and promotes more frequent
citations as indicated by several studies. Open access is supported by the
authors and their institutes. More information is available at
http://www.mdpi.com/about/openaccess/.

Article Processing Charges (APC) are waived for well prepared
manuscripts in 2012. However, a fee of 250 CHF may apply if English
editing or extensive revisions must be undertaken by the Editorial Office.
For details see: http://www.mdpi.com/about/apc/.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors before submitting a manuscript:
http://www.mdpi.com/journal/agriculture/instructions/. Manuscripts should
be submitted through the online manuscript submission and editorial system
at http://www.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/.
