> Who wants to wait for ten years to get the first crop from agave?

Point taken... It would require someone with a long-term view, I imagine. After the first crop starts producing, then it just rolls on ad infinitum. But that initial wait is sort of a bummer.

For the maker of tequila it might make sense but for bio-fuel?

That's where using sewage to oil would have such an advantage, a waste product is used as a stock, and both oil and an a completely sanitary charcoal like product could be made for fertilizer avoiding having anything to landfill.

Nothing too esoteric or complicated.

Agreed- even a new vineyard can produce something drinkable after five years.
