Brazilian Sugar - Sugarcane was introduced during the colonial period and has become one
of the most important crops in the Brazilian economy. Brazil is not only the largest producer
of sugar cane, but also the world's leading producer of sugar and ethanol, and is
conquering more and more foreign markets with the use of biofuels as an alternative
energy source. Sugarcane is an example of a renewable and versatile crop that can be used
as a source of clean energy and commodities.
