1 FT Sustainable Agriculture Summit Spotlight on Brazil SUGARCANE ETHANOL: PRODUCING SUSTAINABLE FOOD AND FUEL Marcos Sawaya Jank President and CEO Brazilian Sugarcane Industry Association (UNICA) London, March 29, 2012
2 Overview of the Brazilian Sugarcane Industry: Key numbers, achievements and perspectives Imagine a future with Sugarcane... By sugarcane.org 2
3 KEY NUMBERS - BRAZILIAN SUGARCANE SECTOR Number of mills: 430 Sugarcane growers: 70,000 Direct employment: 1.2 million Sector annual revenue: US$ 48 billion Foreign revenue (Exports): US$ 15 billion % Energy Matrix: 18% - 2 nd source (behind oil) and 1 st source of renewable energy 1 st SUGAR PRODUCER IN THE WORLD 25% of world production 50% of world exports 2 nd ETHANOL PRODUCER IN THE WORLD 20% of world production 20% of world exports Source: LMC, F.O.Licht s, Secex, UNICA e Rais.
4 KEY NUMBERS - BRAZILIAN SUGARCANE SECTOR Flex Fuel Vehicles: 50% of the light vehicle fleet and almost 90% of new car sales in Over 90 models of FFVs are offered by 12 automakers. Sugarcane bioelectricity represents 2% of the Brazilian electricity matrix. Estimates indicate it can represent 18% by Complementarities: cane harvest occurs during the dry season, when hydroelectric reservoirs are low and marginal sources of electricity are needed.
5 21 st Century: Beginning of a New Era We are here Biomass (firewood) % Hydro Nuclear Natural Gas Modern Biomass Solar Oil Coal Other Sources: Nakícenovic, Grübler and MacDonald, 1998 Main challenges: - Diversify energy sources - Produce more using less natural resources - Reduce CO2 emissions

12 SUGARCANE AGROECOLOGICAL ZONING IN BRAZIL 1. Excludes sugarcane production in the most sensitive biomes, e.g. Amazonia and Pantanal. 2. Excludes the clearing of any type of native vegetation for sugarcane expansion, e.g. Cerrados, Campos. 3. Authorized areas for sugarcane expansion: 64.7 m hectares, or 7.5% of the Brazilian territory. Currently 1% of the area is used for sugarcane.
13 SUGARCANE AREA AND ANNUAL DEFORESTATION RATE IN THE LEGAL AMAZON Th housands km 2 /year Empirical data shows no correlation between ethanol expansion and deforestation Cane are ea (Million hectares) Amazon: deforestation rate Sugarcane Area Sources: INPE (deforestation rates) and IBGE (sugarcane area). Prepared by UNICA.
14 WORLD SUGARCANE MAP Ethanol production in 100 countries would also enhance energy security by reducing world reliance on only 20 oil producing countries. Source: British Sugar
15 OPPORTUNITY FOR DEVELOPING COUNTRIES 1. No competition between biofuels and food production: 50% of gasoline consumption was replaced by ethanol produced on 1.4% of the Brazilian arable land, while food production has doubled in the last decade 2. According to the FAO, only 10% of the world's land that is available and suitable for cane production is actually used for sugarcane cultivation. 3. More than 100 tropical countries could produce sugarcane ethanol. If all of them achieve the Brazilian yields, an extra 20 billion liters of ethanol could be produced (2% of world gasoline needs). 4. This industry would create rural jobs, increase access to electricity, and reduce dependency on oil imports in the world s poorest countries. 5. Elimination of trade barriers from developed countries would allow real opportunities for developing countries to produce 5 Fs - Food, Feed, Fibers, Forests and Fuel.
