Review of modelled greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to indirect land use change (ILUC) of ethanol biofuels. All values were recalculated to a 20-year allocation base and are expressed as g CO2-eq per MJ ethanol. Some studies show results as intervals (illustrated with lines), others as specific values (illustrated with dots). The studies were divided into two categories; economic modelling (E) and miscellaneous (other) modelling (M). FAPRI-CARD, Food Agricultural Policy Research Institute and Center for Agricultural and Rural Development; GTAP, Global Trade Analysis Project; MIRAGE, Modeling International Relationships in Applied General Equilibrium; IFPRI, International Food Policy Research Institute; LEITAP, the abbreviation indicates the extension of the GTAP model developed at the LEI (Landbouw Economisch Instituut) in The Hague; AGLINK, Worldwide Agribusiness Linkage Program.
