“Recently, Searchinger et al. (2008) evaluated that increasing corn-based bioethanol production in the US by 75% (56 bbl) by 2016 would require a diversion of 12.8 million ha of existing cropland in the country to corn production for bioethanol consumption.”

“…for biofuel feedstocks but also for other food or feed crops that compete for the same agricultural land (Raneses et al., 1998; Walsh et al., 2002; Koizumi, 2003; Fulton, 2004; Westcott, 2007), although it should be noted that other factors also contribute to high food prices (see Section 3.3).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
