<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control device for a biofuel engine and a method for determining degradation of biofuel, appropriately determining the degree of degradation of the biofuel without providing a special sensor. Ž<P>SOLUTION: In an electronic control unit 21, regarding the value of a feedback integral term in feedback control over exhaust gas oxygen concentration, the degree of degradation of the biofuel is determined based on a change immediately after latest fueling. The change in the value of the feedback integral term reflects a change in oxygen content of fuel, and then the degree of the oxidation degradation of the biofuel. The degree of degradation of the biofuel is appropriately determined thereby without providing the special sensor. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
