Kieth the main reason for not using sugar cane for ethanol in the states is shelf life.
When sugar cane is ready for harvest they have about one week to process it into ethanol or else it goes bad.
So if all the cane is ready to harvest in one month here in the states then the plants will set empty the rest of the year.
I understand that in Brazil they can spread out the growing season because of their local.
That is why sometimes Brazil buys ethanol from the US. They just bought (50 million gallons, I think) from the US last week. They run a little short certain times of the year.
