Brazilian ethanol imports slide 88% in September as NNE crush kicks in

In Brazil, Platts reports that September ethanol imports fell 88% from the month prior at 5.7 million liters, 95% lower than last year and the lowest since September 2015 when just 15,000 liters were imported. September imports are traditionally low due to the ongoing sugarcane crush in the center-south region and the start of the crush in the north-northeast region where most of the imports go to. The imports are traditionally supplied from the US.
