BETTING ON BIO – FUELS

DuPont is one of the world’s largest alternate energy solutions providers for quite some time now, and has relentlessly worked towards providing industry with the best economically viable energy alternatives. Along with long term ties with energy behemoths like BP, DuPont subsidiaries like Hi-Bred International today are providing upto 180 types of hybrid seeds in order to increase the efficiency and practicality of ethanol based fuels.

Quite ahead of its time indeed.
