JATRO AG is committed to the fulfillment of ethical standards. We have developed a biofuel ethics policy for the governments of jatropha growing countries and investors alike.

The full version of the JATRO AG biofuel ethics policy can be reviewed upon request. The key points are the following:

• We will not grow jatropha on land previously used for food production
• We will not deforest land, but in contrast we will aim to aid forestation initiatives
• We will guarantee that our production of jatropha crude oil is energy positive
• We will maximize our production including the use of waste products and by-products
• We are interested in the management of long term sustainable plantations
• We are not interested in so called land grab without committment to production
• We are committed to providing jobs in underprivileged regions with jatropha farming
