This dataset contains government-fixed ex-mill ethanol prices by year and feedstock type, including C-heavy molasses, B-heavy molasses, sugarcane juice/syrup, surplus rice from Food Corporation of India (FCI), damaged food grains (DFG), and maize. The National Policy on Biofuels-2018 allowed DFG to be used for ethanol from ESY 2018-19, and in April 2020, the government approved the use of FCI surplus rice and maize. These steps reflect India’s strategy to diversify feedstocks and boost ethanol production under the EBP Programme.

This paper analyzes the relationship between gasoline and ethanol markets. Previous researches emphasize on substitution effect between gasoline and ethanol. However, in Brazil gasoline and ethanol are substitutes and complementary goods. We investigate the substitution and complementarity effects between fuels by using Structural Vector Autoregressions Vector (SVAR). As a result, in the short run gasoline price shock effect in ethanol demand is greater than ethanol price shock. In the long run, however, consumers make the consumption of ethanol grow. Furthermore, the introduction of flex fuel technology in Brazil did not produce any impact on ethanol price and demand. The crisis has affected positively the biofuel price nevertheless. As an implication, due to gasoline price shock the sucroalcohol sector must guarantee the ethanol domestic supply in the long run.

The Ethanol Fuel Production industry consists of companies that concentrate on producing nonpotable ethanol, or ethyl alcohol, for use as motor fuel. Products are primarily used as a biofuel additive for gasoline. According to the United States Department of Energy, more than 98.0% of gas in the United States contains some ethanol. Ethanol fuel is a domestically produced alternative to traditional fuel, generally made from corn. The dry-milling process, which composes most ethanol plants in the US, involves converting corn to flour and fermenting it to form ethanol. This makes operations highly sensitive to commodity prices, such as the world price of crude oil and corn. The industry has encountered significantly volatile conditions attributed to heavy fluctuations in commodity prices, prompting significant changes in the price of ethanol. Amid the onset of the pandemic in 2020, the cost of ethanol fell considerably because of reduced demand, resulting in collapsing industry revenue that year. As the economy reopened in 2021, demand returned and the price of ethanol surged. Trends reversed in 2023 and 2024 as corn and ethanol prices plummeted. Still, the enormous rise in 2021 effectively offset all other declines, enabling the industry to boom overall. Ethanol Fuel Production industry revenue has been accelerating at a CAGR of 5.0% over the past five years and is expected to total $32.3 billion in 2024, when revenue will fall by an estimated 5.9%. Profit also increased because of higher industry selling prices and a drop in wages. The industry will fare worse going forward, with a slated contraction. This contraction can be attributed to declines in the price of crude oil and subsequent decreases in the price of ethanol. Since most of the industry's meteoric growth was due to price increases, not production, falling commodity prices will cause industry revenue to regress. Ethanol Fuel Production industry revenue is expected to inch downward at a CAGR of 0.4% to $31.6 billion over the five years to 2029.

This paper examines the relationship between corn prices and hog prices in the United States using monthly time-series data in a two-stage least squares regression. Ethanol production and various types of genetically modified corn seed research and development are used as instrumental variables for corn prices to account for endogeneity in the model, by removing changes in corn and hog prices that occur due to the reverse-causal relationship between the two commodities. Ethanol production was determined to be the strongest instruments for corn prices. The results indicate that increases in the price of corn increase the price of hog by a smaller, yet still significant magnitude.
