The purpose of this study is to show evidences for designing a sustainable supply-demand system of both food and energy. Analytical method includes designing an integrated flow diagram of food and energy. This shows series of flows from food production to consumption and the energy consumed in the process of food chain. In this study, biofuel production is 1.4×10-2 EJ, which accounts for 0.08% of Japan's total primary energy supply (TPES) 18.5 EJ. TPES in the food chain is 1.84 EJ, which reaches 10% of Japan’s TPES. It’s important to understand the mutual relationship of all related resources, in order to deal with multiple problems at the same time like increasing biofuel production and stabilizing food and energy prices.
