SWEET SORGHUM ETHANOL MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

Global sweet sorghum ethanol market size was forecasted to be worth USD 3.47 billion in 2024, expected to achieve USD 5.05 billion by 2033 with a CAGR of 4.23% during the forecast period.

Sweet sorghum is a variety of sorghum developed primarily for sugarcane harvesting. Due to the high sugar content and preservation during drought. Ethanol feed stocks are plant materials that can be converted into ethanol. In this case, the sugar syrup from sweet sorghum stalks is fermented to produce ethanol.

Sectors using sorghum seeds such as alcohol distilleries, food manufacturers, and starch industry are expected to lead the market in terms of seed sales and adoption of sorghum seeds in daily diet over the forecast years. The increasing consumption of alcoholic beverages and the spread of alcohol-based hand sanitizers are the most important growth factors for the market.

COVID-19 IMPACT

"Pandemic Halted Production And Supply Chain Hence Reduce Market Growth"

The COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the sweet sorghum ethanol market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden rise in CAGR is attributable to the market’s growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels.

COVID-19 has seriously affected the global economy and had a devastating impact on global business, affecting households, businesses, financial institutions, industrial companies and infrastructure companies at the same time. The shutdown of the industrial producer caused a decrease in demand for vehicles used for transportation, and the shutdown of the transportation sector in most countries of the world caused a decrease in demand for the market.

LATEST TRENDS

"Rising Technological Advancements Foster Market Expansion"
