Sugar cane (Saccharum) crops used to produce ethanol fuel growing in a field near Mineirds in Brazil.


In Brazil, ethanol fuel is produced from sugar cane. Aswell as the largest crop in the world, it is also the largest exporter of ethanol. High government sales taxes on gasoline, as well as government subsidies for ethanol, have cultivated a profitable national ethanol industry. Nearly all fueling stations in Brazil offer a choice of either gasoline type C or hydrated ethanol.
