Farmers of Brazil are an agricultural powerhouse
With more than 6 million agricultural enterprises, Brazil doesn’t only have the
land base and type to produce vast quantities of food, but also the
entrepreneurial spirit.
Over the past decade Brazil has risen to the fore as a
supplier of many agricultural products, from sugar cane to beef to soy beans.
Today Brazil is the largest producer of sugarcane in the world at 720 million
tons per annum, making up nearly half the global production of 1.
7 billion
tonnes of sugar, occupying nearly 24 million hectares of land.
Interestingly, if
all of Brazil’s sugarcane was converted into fuel ethanol it would be able to fill 64 million cars from
its annual production.
