“…In other words, iLUC are the theoretical changes in land use that take place as a consequence of a bioenergy project, but are geographically disconnected to it (Berndes, Ahlgren, Börjesson, & Cowie, 2013). Some studies used land use statistics and models to find empirical evidence of iLUC due to biofuel production (Arima, Richards, Walker, and Caldas (2011), Andrade de Sá, Palmer, and di Falco (2013) and Jusys (2017). These studies, which have a Brazilian focus, found that indirect changes often occur in close proximity to the biofuel raw material production.…”
