Article is devoted to Minagropolitika’s development of the Development program of production of diesel biofuel in Ukraine for the period till 2010. In it it is said that the Program provides: creation of sources for providing agricultural producers with fuel at the stable prices, the guaranteed sales market them vegetative raw materials, reduction of an import of energy carriers.
Article is intended for agricultural producers of various form of ownership.

Without having sustained contemplation behind process of a rise in price of oil, the power decided to look for a solution of the problem of providing the village fuel by transition to alternative types of energy resources.
Minagropolitiki developed the whole Development program of production of diesel biofuel in Ukraine for the period till 2010. Emergence of the program is caused by need of creation of sources of providing agricultural producers fuel at the stable prices, the guaranteed sales market them vegetative raw materials, reduction of an import of broad raw materials, reduction of an import of energy carriers.
The reasons of emergence of a problem of providing agricultural producers fuel is important dependence of the state on an import of energy carriers and a price situation on a world oil market. For guaranteed ensuring carrying out agricultural works in agro-industrial complex behind technological norms about 1870 thousand tons of diesel fuel and 620 thousand tons of gasoline every year are necessary. For production of such amount of fuel nearly 4,5 million tons of oil which is mainly imported are used. Continuous growth of its cost leads to increase of cost of oil products, and consequently, and agricultural production. Therefore traditional option of requirements satisfaction of agricultural production at the expense of only oil products – low-perspective. It is more expedient to pass to providing agricultural producers with biofuel which is developed from a rape. In favor of it experience of such countries, as the USA, Germany, Australia, France, the Czech Republic where for cultivation of a rape 10-14 % of an arable land are used testifies. It is expedient to create regional zones of the concentrated cultivation of a winter and summer rape in the area from 50 to 70 thousand hectares, to provide development of technical base of production of diesel biofuel and remaintaining means from diesel fuel on biofuel.
Increase in the area of crops of a rape to 10 % of total area of an arable land in Ukraine and processing of 75 % of the received crop on biofuel will give the chance to solve a problem of stable supply of energy resources to agrarian sector of economy at the expense of own renewable source, which more economically safe for environment, than traditional diesel fuel.
Considering positive experience of development of production of biofuel of EU countries, in Ukraine it is expedient to use biofuel as in pure form, and in the form of mixes of traditional diesel fuel and biofuel.
Implementation of the program in full will provide annual production of diesel biofuel within about 623 thousand tons which will allow to reduce an oil import to 1,88 million tons and, respectively, to reduce an expense of currency resources (by volume about 40,4 billion UAH. from calculation of estimated price of oil 2100-2200 grn./tn.
The beginning of action of the program – 2006.
Program end – 2010.
The program should provide: creation of zones of the concentrated cultivation of a rape with use of modern technologies; the guaranteed sale by agricultural producers of the rape necessary for production of diesel biofuel;
creation of system of state standards in the sphere of production and use of alternative types of fuel; use in the sphere of production and consumption of diesel biofuel of economic levers and incentives according to the legislation;
assistance to construction of plants which will develop diesel biofuel;
improvement of structure of lands of agricultural purpose, in particular:
optimization of the areas of the agricultural holdings occupied under a rape; introduction of soil-protective system of agriculture; observance of a scientific and reasonable crop rotation; ensuring creation of internal combustion engines of new generation for use of diesel biofuel, and also creation of technical and economic conditions by the user for mass re-equipment (adaptation) of available internal combustion engines for use diesel biotolpiva.
To reach potential volume of production of biofuel (declared in the program), it is necessary to construct till 2008 three biofuel plants the general productivity to 300000 tons, and erect till 2010 not less than 20 plants productivity from 5000 to 100000 tons; in the general capacity not less than 623 thousand tons of biofuel. Expenses on production of one ton of MERO for plants productivity of 100000 tons will make 3020-3100 UAH/tons (depending on productivity of a rape and demand for rape seeds in the market). Besides accompanying products – to 1,8 tons shrota and 0,05 oshchichenny glycerin to 1260 hryvnias will be developed in the total cost. Settlement of providing agricultural enterprises by diesel biofuel will create conditions for distribution of the sphere of its use – on vehicles of the general using with diesel engines.
Financial side of a medal
The total amount of financing of the Program makes 12137550 thousand hryvnias. Including at the expense of the government budget – 1 035510 thousand hryvnias.
The state financial support is means of acceleration of development of production of biofuel and should be used only for building of the first pilot (demonstration) objects on production of biofuel and for other corresponding needs. Use of public funds is necessary also for carrying out scientific researches, tests of technologies, research samples of equipment, perspective grades of plants, development of the specifications and technical documentation, standards, etc.
The state support which will be provided for building of pilot objects, can mainly be allocated on a returnable basis within means which will be provided for this purpose in state and local budgets for 2006-2010.
For stimulation of cultivation of a rape ensuring annual state financial support with a way of dating of agricultural producers of all forms of ownership and managing which grow up a rape for production of diesel biofuel is supposed.
In 2006 in volume – 65 hryvnias on hectare of crops of a rape, and in 2007-2010 – to 100 hryvnias on hectare of crops of a rape.
Besides, it is supposed to direct annually on selection in plant growing branches about 90 million hryvnias, including on rape development – 10 million UAH.
Law party
In particular, the Law of Ukraine About alternative types of rare and gas fuel provides stimulation of introduction of the latest production technologies of alternative types of fuel. According to specified, the regulations directed on activization of development of a rape in Ukraine and construction of plants which will develop diesel biofuel should be prepared. In Ukraine it is necessary to provide creation of system of state standards in the sphere of production and use of alternative types of fuel, in particular, diesel biofuel with ecological and technical indicators of its consumer quality, specific expenses in different areas of a social production, indicators concerning labor protection and health of the person.
