Agri & Public Policy

Our Vision

At AIEOU.world, our purpose is to bring policy closer to people by decoding complex reforms and initiatives into accessible, insightful narratives. We aim to spark dialogue between policymakers, industry, academia, and citizens—highlighting how decisions in public policy impact farmers, entrepreneurs, families, and communities. By blending grassroots realities with global viewpoints, and the voices of both grads and gurus, we seek to inform, inspire, and influence a generation that will not just respond to policy but actively help shape it.

Coconut at Crossroads

 Often celebrated as Kalpavriksha—the mythological wish-fulfilling tree—the coconut palm (Cocos nucifera) has earned this title because every part of it serves a purpose. From its nourishing water and oil to its leaves and husk, nothing goes to waste.

India Pushes to Boost Ethanol Output - Devappa

Eyes Export Markets

In a renewed push to strengthen energy security and support rural incomes, the Indian government has urged biofuel manufacturers to ramp up ethanol production, with an eye on expanding into global markets. The call was made by Union Minister Pralhad Joshi at the India Sugar and Bio-Energy Conference 2025, where he highlighted ethanol’s role in reducing dependence on imported crude oil.

Rapid Growth in Blending

Since 2014, ethanol blending in India’s fuel mix has surged from just 1.5% to nearly 20%, a milestone hailed as a major step in the country’s renewable energy journey.

Economic Savings and Energy Independence

  This transition has saved the economy approximately ₹1.44 lakh crore in foreign exchange by cutting crude oil imports, while also contributing to energy self-reliance.

Sugar Sector’s Transformation

  India’s sugarcane production has grown by around 40% and sugar output by nearly 58% in the last decade, supported by biofuel policies. This transformation has created stronger linkages between agriculture and the energy sector.

Support for Farmers and Mills

  Policy initiatives have ensured timely payments to sugarcane growers and offered sugar mills a new revenue stream through ethanol production, making the sector more resilient.

Export Ambitions

With domestic blending levels now stabilized, the government is encouraging producers to target global ethanol demand. Minister Joshi also stressed the need for investment in innovation and advanced technologies to enhance efficiency and competitiveness.

Production Outlook

  According to the Indian Sugar and Bio-energy Manufacturers Association (ISMA), gross sugar output in 2025-26 is expected to remain at about 349 lakh tonnes. Updated crop estimates are likely to be released later this year.

Implications and Challenges

  •  Environmental Gains: Higher ethanol use reduces greenhouse gas emissions and supports India’s climate commitments.
  • Rural Development: Millions of farmers benefit from steady demand for sugarcane, ensuring more stable livelihoods.
  • Global Competitiveness: To succeed internationally, ethanol must be produced with consistent quality and cost-efficiency, backed by robust logistics and regulatory frameworks.
  • Technology and Supply Chain Needs: Scaling up sustainably will require innovations in production processes and stronger infrastructure for storage, transport, and blending.
  • Policy Support: Clear, stable policies and fair pricing for cane growers remain vital for long-term sectoral growth.

Conclusion

India’s ethanol story has evolved beyond meeting domestic blending targets. It is now positioning itself as a potential global player in biofuels, combining energy security with rural development and environmental benefits. With strong government backing, an expanding sugar sector, and ambitious blending benchmarks, the foundation is set. The challenge lies in ensuring that growth is sustainable, technologically advanced, and globally competitive.
