Abstract
Rural areas and farmers are important elements for developing countries. Especially, socio-economic conditions and opportunities in the agriculture can affect economy directly. One of the high production cost is fuel consumption, which can affect farmers’ income negatively. Nowadays, fuel cost increases and directly or indirectly disturbs farmers. New kinds of technologies and concerns about climate changes cause alternative energy opportunities for rural areas. Biodiesel is one of the new important energy sources. This environmental-friendly source contributes rural economy and is likely to be a new opportunity for rural area and economy. In this paper, rural areas, biodiesel production and opportunities in rural areas were discussed.
