Disastrous Bulgarian corn harvest
Bio-based feedstock supplies are not stable; they depend on many factors such as climate. However, greedy petrochemical giants such as BASF, ENI, TotalEnergies, wealthy sugar families and the agro-industries are after our tax money … and that’s were the Sicilian CBE JU straw man kicks in.
