Which cells to use in ''Input sheet'' in 5.02c

Hi, I am looking to have a better understanding of the new 5.02c model. 
I would like to modelize biodiesel from tallow. 
Should I use the column BG (High FFA) instead of the column BC (Tallow) in the Input Sheet, starting from Rows 240
If yes, why so ? What is the reasoning behind creating Low and High FFA general categories for feedstock?
Thanks in advance, 
Best

The tallow column is for the rendering process, those parameters are outside of your control so they shouldn't be adjusted.

The publicly available production data for biodiesel plants shows a large difference between plants that process UCO and tallow and plants that process vegetable oils. So GHGenius has different default values for the two categories of plants.

When modelling tallow biodiesel, the inputs should be entered into the High FFA column.
