Grupo Idea online article Power generation with sugarcane bagasse grows 365% in twelve years in Mato Grosso do Sul?Sustainability, environmental protection and clean energy generation. There has never been so much talk about these issues, especially after the visible warming of the planet, which is felt on the skin. To circumvent these problems, or even mitigate them, Mato Grosso do Sul began diversification in power generation models, prioritizing processes that do not harm the environment. One of them is sugarcane bagasse biomass. In twelve years, the delivery of bioelectricity – or clean energy, or biomass energy – grew by 365%.??From 2009 to 2021, for example, the delivery of bioelectricity from sugarcane by Mato Grosso do Sul jumped 631,000 Megawatt per hour (MWh) to 2.3 million MWh. The figures are from the Electric Energy Trading Chamber (CCEE), compiled by the Association of Bioproducers of Mato Grosso do Sul (Biosul). Ivinhema, Angélica, Rio Brilhante, Caarapó, Ponta Porã, Chapadão do Sul and Sonora are some of the main producers of the energy that uses straw and sugarcane bagasse.??According to Amaury Pekelman, president of biosul's Deliberative Council, it is a clean and renewable energy source that provides energy security and contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. This bioletricity captained by Biosul is the electrical energy generated from biomass, organic matter of plant origin. Both bagasse and sugarcane straw are two by-products reused for this purpose in the sugar-energy industries. Throughout the state, the 17 sugar-energy units in operation cogenerate bioelectricity for their own consumption.??Of these, 11 units – or 64% of them – export the surplus to the National Interconnected System (SIN), which is responsible for the energy distribution network throughout the country. Today, Mato Grosso do Sul is the 4th largest exporter of bioelectricity to SIN. According to Amaury Pekelman, bioelectricity cogeneration has been increasingly highlighted by its potential in terms of sustainability. "The bioelectricity generated from sugarcane biomass brings environmental and economic gains. It is a clean and renewable energy source that provides energy security and contributes to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the participation of plants operating in the state in programs such as RenovaBio", he points out.??At the same time, energy from sugarcane biomass is also a stimulus to job creation and new investments in industry. Its importance in the country's energy matrix is mainly due to the complementarity of hydroelectric energy, as an alternative in the period of little rain. In addition, the economy with transmission structure can be highlighted since the plants are located near the consumer centers. Check out the industry numbers in Mato Grosso do SulCrop 2021/2022: 41 million tonnes of sugarcane 1.3 million tons of sugar 2.4 billion liters of ethanol Production mix: 75% for ethanol and 25% for sugar National Ranking: 4th largest producer of sugarcane 5th largest ethanol producer 5th largest sugar producer 4th largest exporter of bioelectricity to SIN Production profile: ?17 units in operation All are producers of hydrated ethanol. 11 anhydrous producers 10 sugar producers. 10 VHP sugar producers. 03 producers crystal sugar. 02 refined sugar producers. All cogenerate bioelectricity, 11 export the surplus to the national electricity grid. Area 84% of sugarcane crops are concentrated in the southern cone of the state; 650,000 hectares harvested; 800,000 hectares planted;??Expansion without the need for deforestation. Employment: One of the largest salary in the industry with R$ 834 million (Caged/Biosul/2021); 30,000 direct jobs generated in MS; R$ 3,149.73 - Best average salary in the industry (+ 10,000 employees); R$ 3,032.35 - Highest average salary in agriculture (+ 3,000 employees).

Linked in - Rodrigo Egéa de Miranda's PHC Director General BrasilNO USE BLAMING THE CLIMATE The current crop is not very encouraging. That prospect of production above the previous harvest is gradually getting in the way, unfortunately. According to information from Unica - Union of the Sugarcane and Bioenergy Industry published by novacana portal, we are more than 8% below in TCH and almost 13% below in TAH when compared to the 2021/2022 harvest. While productivity does not react, opportunities for the sugar-energy segment grow: - Cogeneration grew 365% in the last 12 months in MS - Ethanol diesel is quoted to replace fossil fuel (https://lnkd.in/dqCUumeQ) In addition to these, we have hydrogen cells for automobiles and biogas, among several others. BUT FOR this to be a real opportunity, NEED TO HAVE CANE TO GRIND. The climate will continue to challenge productivity and only the increasing adoption of TECHNOLOGIES in sugarcane production will transform potential opportunities into BUSINESS.INVESTMENT CANNOT BE THOUGHT OF COST/HECTARE. IT IS NECESSARY TO THINK THE INVESTMENT IN COST/TON HARVESTED. THINK ABOUT IT

Novacana articleWith Brazilian technology, ethanol diesel is tipped to replace fossil fuel Product does not yet have authorization from the ANP to be marketed, but is used experimentally; sector speaks of the new fuel with optimism.??Alternative to the future of fuel technology, ethanol diesel oil is one of the bets of the Brazilian sugar and energy sector. Unlike the conventional, which has fossil origin and is used in cargo or passenger transport vehicles, electric generators and industries of all segments, the new fuel, produced with national technology, is seen as an option to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases, which cause global warming, in the coming years.?Sugarcane diesel has been used experimentally by companies and in public transport buses in São Paulo. Fuel was one of the main topics addressed during the opening of the 28th edition of Fenasucro & Agrocana on Tuesday, 16, in Sertãozinho (SP). The president of datagro consulting, Pliny Nastari, explains that the fuel is formed from a chemical process of stretching the ethanol molecule to becoming a diesel molecule and, if adopted, should foster the national economy.?Brazil still imports more than 14 billion liters of diesel per year. The production of diesel from renewable sources, such as this, from the elongation of the ethanol molecule, is an extremely promising route and should be incorporated not only for land transport, but also for seafarers", he says.?For Fenasucro President Paulo Montabone, the use of the new fuel is not far from becoming a reality. He believes that ethanol diesel should generate a wave of investment from the sugarcane sector, to replace even the diesel used in the machines that operate in the plantations. This could make the certification of the plants live a new moment, with greater energy efficiency and less negative impact on the environment.According to Montabone, diesel produced from ethanol is a Brazilian technology that is "kept under a key". In addition to environmental advantages, he cites economic gains, thanks to export possibilities. "It's the great technology of the moment. And the industry in the interior of São Paulo wins, which will develop to meet this new demand for the construction of biorefineries", he says.?Research The technology, in the experimental phase, does not yet have authorization from the National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP) to be commercialized. While liberation does not happen, scholars work, in universities, research institutes and companies, to improve their operation. The technical director Marcos Daniel de Lima, duo Automation, explains that the company, initially focused on the automotive sector and now also operates in the agronomic market, began to develop studies related to "green" diesel.?"There was an internal demand and, as we are a company that seeks innovation and we are linked to universities, we started these works to solve what, at first, was a problem of power plants. We just know that this is going to extend," he says. According to Lima, the reception at Fenasucro has been seen as a "start" for the company, which intends to disclose the results already obtained to attract industrialists to the fuel. "The technology can be deployed in any plant. It can even generate profit, since the plants spend on average about 10% of their gross revenue sofa with fossil diesel for fleets and machines", he puts.

Plant Health Care Brasil presents seed treatment results during the Brazilian Cotton CongressDuring the 13th Brazilian Cotton Congress, the main event of the cotton production chain in Brazil promoted by the Brazilian Association of Cotton Producers (Abrapa) in Salvador, Plant Health Care, an American company dedicated to the development and commercialization of organic technologies that enable plants to express their full productive potential, presents a great novelty. It brings, first hand, unprecedented results of the use of PREtec technology in seed treatment, for the control of ramury and target spot in cotton.The studies, presented by Juliagro B, G&P, a research company in crop protection and improvement, show that seed treatment with the formulation PREtec SC promoted eliciting activity in cotton crop and lower severity of ramularia and target spot, when compared to the foliar fungicide program applied alone, positively influencing productivity, with gains between 121.3 and 132.3 arrobas per hectare in relation to the control.Launched in soybean in the 2021/22 crop by Plant Health Care Brazil, SAORI (trademark for PREtec technology in soybean crop), registered in Brazil as biochemical fungicide for seed treatment, stimulates the plant defense system and has been contributing to the management of leaf diseases. Validated by the most respected researchers of soybean diseases in the country, it won over the producers of the crop who have gained a profitable and sustainable alternative to deal with the management of leaf diseases.PHC Brasil is also bringing new PREtec peptide platforms for Brazilian farmers to deal with the management of other leaf diseases, including in other crops. With this, PHC Brazil has been building a portfolio of biologically natural solutions at the service of active, healthy and sustainable agriculture. This is how PHC Brasil technologies anticipate the future to offer today the answers that the farmer needs to work with freedom, tranquility and profitability.

Interesting that Tropfen are marketing ProAct with two other complementary biologicals in a product line called Tropbio ["Tropbio Pro" is essentially ProAct].
The article claims that Tropfen are partnering with PHC to 'develop' new technologies. I read this as they will add to their Tropbio line with further PHC products once registered. Tropfen have an impressive growth forecast.
Patience required.

-----------------------------------
Tropfen presents 3 biological alternatives at 2022 Aapresid Congress
16th Aug 22

[Extract]
″These lines of biologicals for seed treatment are our big bet for this campaign. We are also convinced that innovation and development must be within reach of the producer,″ explained Tropfen's Marketing and Technical Services manager.

According to him, Tropfen intends to ″double its business volume in five years and reach 20 million hectares with our technologies, with bio-inputs representing 30% of this goal.″

″We gradually integrated ourselves into the market, and today, we are a reference in agricultural foliar applications with more than 10 million hectares applied with our technologies,″ says Oldani Ratto.

Partnership with PHC

Tropfen recently partnered strategically with the US biotechnology company Plant Health Care Inc. (PHC), with which they are developing technologies.

According to the local company, the bioinput market in Argentina amounts to just US$100 million, with 70% of soy inoculants, against $3 million in the chemical technology market.

On the other hand, expected growth rates for the chemical market are around 3%, while in the case of bio-inputs they are up to 14%, Tropfen projected.

That's true callum but on the other hand why would you want to undervalue your business on purpose to make a million when you can fully value it and make tens of millions? or in otherwords your never going to accept an offer that undervalues the business, just wouldn't make sense. Plus you have a duty to all shareholders to value the business correctly, failure to do that opens yourself to considerable litigation.
