In Brazil, Platts reports that June ethanol imports fell to their lowest levels since November at 50.3 million liters, almost all of it into the North-Northeast region from the US. Total imports through June stood at 1.22 billion liters, 5% lower than last year. The NNE region saw record ethanol prices last week due to lower imports from the US and high freight rates for ethanol supplied from the Center-South region that is currently crushing sugarcane.
