EU biodiesel output growth slowed in 2007: EBB

VERONA, Italy (Reuters) - Growth of the European Union's biodiesel output slowed to not more than 10 percent in 2007 due to increasing competition from the U.S biodiesel, a senior European Biodiesel Board (EBB) official said on Friday.

"Growth in 2007 was the worst in the past 10 years," Garofalo said.
