Brazil is best in class in production of ethanol from sugar cane, says Victor
Brazil's sugarcane industry produces about 160,000 barrels of oil-equivalent a day, assisting the country in achieving self-sufficiency in oil sometime this year, notes PESD program director David G. Victor in February 2, 2006 New York Times article. Still, unlike Japan and China, which have plans to import Brazilian ethanol, the Bush administration has retained a 54 cent tariff on every gallon of imported ethanol.
