In Brazil, the country is looking to double its ethanol production from corn by 2018 in an effort to boost supplies during the sugarcane inter-crop season. At the moment, three sugarcane mills in Mato Grasso also produce ethanol from corn following the example of a first mill who introduced the idea successfully in 2011. Two new plants are under construction that will double the state’s production to 300 million liters annually, including Iowa-based Summit’s facility that should be online this year.
