Volume 4, Issue 8

Feature: Exceeding expectations
The Brazilian ethanol market had been predicted to face a deficit in 2010/11, notwithstanding a large surgarcane crop, as result of strong demand growth and severely reduced stock levels. In reality demand has remained weak due to high prices caused by producer stockpiling, coupled with a difficult export market. The Brazilian market could find itself with larger than expected ethanol stocks at a time when supply was forecast to be in short supply. Centre south (CS) Brazil producers began the 2010/11 harvest much earlier than usual in order to meet old crop sugar export commitments, which previously had been interrupted by a wet final quarter of 2009. The early start was also driven by the need to replenish sharply depleted ethanol stocks and bring new season supply to market to prevent long term damage to consumer confidence.
