Government bans use of sugarcane for ethanol in 2023-24 ethanol supply year
08-Dec-23   16:06 Hrs IST
The Centre banned the use of ?sugacane juice and sugar syrup? for ethanol production in the 2023-24 supply year that started this month, in order to maintain adequate sugar availability for domestic consumption. However, the government has allowed use of ?B-molasses? for ethanol production in 2023-24, a move which sugar industry bodies welcomed. In a letter issued to all sugar mills and distillers, the Food Ministry directed them ?not to use sugarcane juice /sugar syrup? for ethanol production during the 2023-24 ethanol supply year (December-November). The directive was issued as per clause 4 and 5 of the Sugar (Control) Order 1966. Supply of ethanol from existing offers received by Oil Marketing Companies (OMCs) from B-Heavy molasses will continue, Food ministry said in the letter.
