India Hits 20% Ethanol Blending Milestone

India has achieved a big milestone by mixing 20% ethanol with petrol, which is great for the environment and energy security.

However, there is now too much ethanol being produced, and not enough is being used.

This is causing problems for sugar mills because they have invested a lot of money in making ethanol, but now they can't sell it all.

The government is using more grains like maize to make ethanol instead of sugar, which is making the situation worse.

Sugar mills are struggling because they are not making enough money to cover their costs.

The government needs to find a way to balance the ethanol market so that sugar mills can stay in business and farmers can get paid.
