Overview
For most of its existence to date, only part of the crop has been utilised, this being the ‘millable’ cane stalk which accounts for approximately 75% of the plant. But, there are moves afoot to promote the use of the entire crop, and to exploit its rich potential for raw sugar, animal feed and energy. There is an accelerating view that for far too long sugarcane has been under-recognised and under-utilised, and new markets for energy uses such as bioelectricity and biofuels are aggressively being explored. This makes the possibilities for sugarcane endless, when it is considered that worldwide only 20 countries produce oil for energy, yet approximately 100 countries cultivate sugarcane.
