It's great to look to alternative fuels, and Brazil should be excited about this new "cash crop" that can, not necessarily end Brazil's reliance on fossil fuels, but at the very least move the country closer in that direction. The caveat of this of course is the same problems that have confronted states like Mato grosso, and Para for decades. The uncontrolled exploration of the Amazon forest, the grillagem (land grabbing) of public lands, and the exploitation and, at times, enslavement of rural workers.

We've seen the results of uncontrolled soy expansion, and sugar cane will follow this same path if the government continues to run foreward blindly looking for easy profits and easy fixes, without addressing some of the more complicated, long-standing, problems with public lands and law enforcement in remote regions.

I wish Brazil the best of luck.

I presume industrial stills are better than home style equipment. I hope to find some comparisons. Could we start promoting farm locations here or Mexico to give them jobs?.
Brazilian company names?
