Increase food and fuel security by expanding crop base and cross-linking production efforts


I am not so sure about the meaning of the last bit of this sentence, could someone reword or explain it for me?

Many thanks in advance

Selected answer:interdependent production efforts
Explanation:
I suspect this of being a "company buzzword", and that this is what it means. I'm by no means sure, though, and would recommend you ask the customer for confirmation - or indeed otherwise...

The picture I have is of some agricultural product where the prime use is traditional, and what used to be discarded as waste is now used - perhaps to generate heat, or maybe electricity.
