3 BRAZILIAN SUGAR-CANE PRODUCTION ~500 million tons/year ~ half for sugar production (domestic and export markets) 48% ~ half for ethanol production 52%

4 BRAZIL: REGIONS AND SEASONALITY North-Northeast 15% of the production crop: October-March Center-South São Paulo 62% of the total sugar-cane 76% of the sugar (CS region) 71% of the ethanol (CS region) 85% of the production crop: April-December

10 SUGAR-CANE AND THE ENVIRONMENT An agricultural activity that displays one of the world s lowest soil erosion rates (the lowest erosion rate in the American Hemisphere), An agricultural activity that displays one of the world s lowest chemical and agrochemical utilization rates (by using biological pest control and soil fertigation with sugar-cane industrial processing waste vinasse),

11 SUGAR-CANE ETHANOL AND THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT BRAZIL = 16 billion liters/year (of ethanol) WHICH MITIGATES MORE THAN 40 PERCENT OF THE TOTAL EMISSIONS FROM THE USE OF FOSSIL FUELS IN THE COUNTRY S TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM Given the agricultural peculiarities of sugar-cane in Brazil, each ton of sugar-cane used to produce fuel ethanol absorbs 0,18 ton of CO 2 (i.e. figure inclusive of the emissions resulting from the industrial process and the burning of ethanol as a fuel),

18 Expected increase in Ethanol consumption in the Domestic Market (BR) and Gains in Reduced Emissions In the year 2010, Brazil will have an additional consumption of 7 billion liters of ethanol (replacing gasoline in flex-fuel cars) decrease in emissions of ~ 49 million tons of CO 2 /year

19 Expected growth of the sugar-cane industry and Development Crop area: 2,3 million hectares Milling capacity increase: 800,000 tons of sugar-cane per day Equivalent to: 67 new plants New jobs: 300,000 Addition to the balance of payments: US$ 3,0 billion Investments (Sugar-Cane Crops, Machinery, Implements): US$ 1,0 billion Investments (Industry): US$ 5,0 billion Investments in infrastructure: Logistics, Ports, etc,
