In Louvakou, Congo, agricultural projects by Eni Congo have faced challenges, with the castor oil project failing due to poor productivity. Eni aims to increase biofuel production globally, shifting focus to other crops like sunflower and soy, which may impact local food security. Despite claims of sustainability, local farmers express concerns about the benefits of these projects, as they primarily serve international markets. The Italian government supports biofuel initiatives in Africa through the 'Mattei Plan.'
