Los cultivos oleaginosos ocupan aproximadamente el 37% de la superficie agrícola mundial, y la demanda de aceite va en aumento. Para 2050, la demanda prevista de aceites vegetales podría requerir un aumento del 14% en la producción, lo que podría poner en peligro la biodiversidad si se talan zonas naturales para cultivarlos. Aunque los aceites vegetales son una parte importante de una dieta saludable, su producción tiene una serie de repercusiones medioambientales y sociales. Podemos limitar el impacto de los aceites vegetales en la biodiversidad si se utilizan métodos de producción sostenibles, se previene la expansión de los cultivos oleaginosos en los ecosistemas naturales, se aumentan los rendimientos actuales, los cultivos oleaginosos se utilizan principalmente en la alimentación y no como forraje o biocombustible, y si los aceites sintéticos están disponibles en volúmenes mucho mayores.
