Are there technologies available to produce biofuels based on organic compost, from organic crop waste, that could serve as engine fuel to power tractors and other agricultural machinery in sustainable, organic, pro-environmental, pro-climate farming?
In recent years, in connection with the inclusion of the agricultural sector in the process of green transformation of the economy as well, new solutions are being sought, created and implemented to enable the transformation of productive farms into sustainable, pro-environmental, pro-climate, organic farms growing crops and other aspects of agricultural activity in accordance with the principles of organic farming and with the simultaneous implementation of sustainable development goals. Accordingly, on a farm operated in accordance with the formula of sustainable organic agriculture, pesticides and other chemical pesticides and chemically produced fertilizers are not used in agricultural crops, energy is obtained from renewable and emission-free energy sources, water is obtained mainly from rainwater catchment facilities, organic manure and processed organic waste from composters are used to fertilize farm fields, crop rotations are used within the framework of multi-year cycles to restore high soil quality and prevent soil aridity, individual farm fields are separated by green belts and flower meadows to provide foraging areas for pollinating insects, on-farm mini-treatment plants are built to treat wastewater generated on the farm and not used in a specific way for farm purposes, etc. Besides, on a farm run according to the formula of sustainable organic farming, available technologies for the production of biofuels based on organic compost, from organic waste from agricultural crops, through which motor fuel is produced to power tractors and other agricultural machinery, should be used. These may include the construction of biogas plants, where biogas can be produced, which can then be used to power agricultural machinery. Besides, in a sustainable, ecological, pro-environmental, pro-climate farm, agro-tourism activities may also be developed, and certain preserves, food products, such as jams, juices, cheeses, etc., may be produced within the framework of a micro-production activity or manufactory, within the framework of local brands on the basis of organically produced, cultivated crops. In addition, such sustainable, organic agritourism farms may be associated within a local producers' cooperative with silos, warehouses, etc. in which crops from the cultivation of several or more locally operating farms and/or agritourism farms are stored, including or mainly, only those operating under the formula of sustainable organic farming.
In view of the above, I address the following question to the esteemed community of scientists and researchers:
Are there technologies available for the production of biofuels based on organic compost, from organic crop waste, which could be used as motor fuel to power tractors and other agricultural machinery in a sustainable, organic, pro-environmental, pro-climate farm?
Could biofuels from agricultural waste be used as engine fuel to power tractors in sustainable organic farming?

You do not need composting agricultural wastes to produce tractor biofuels, such as bioethanol or pyrolysis gas. But if you wish to use biogas, some raw materials need pre-treatment before digestion. Such pre-treatment may consist of a partial composting.
