Step #1 Burn your food.

Step #2 Convert agricultural lands for food production over to fuel production.

Step #3 Food prices go to a 1000% price rise as a result of the prior two steps.

Step #4 Starvation and riots on a mass global scale.

Step #5 The 30% of the population surviving form nomadic hunting and gathering groups and compete with each other in deadly clashes to keep the population in check.

Jatropha Curcas is a small shrub/tree... the beans are not edible... The shrub grows on marginal land with modest water use. Often the land where it grows will not support food crops... So - this is a better situation than with corn or other oil feedstocks... Jatropha has potential - but will only grow in tropical or semitropical areas. In short Jatropha Curcas farming does not have to compete with food production. The oil from Jatropha is used to make biodiesel - not ethanol.
