In 2007, Burkina Faso embarked upon production of jatropha oil, a biofuel that can replace diesel in rural areas. This biofuel, which is produced, processed and consumed within the same rural area, fits into the way in which local people live, has stimulated energy demand, and has also changed public opinion. These are the results of a field survey by a team from CIRAD, aimed at understanding how the proximity of supplies influences demand, and how that demand is built and expressed.
