Focusing on the potential of sorghum as a complementary crop for ethanol production, this book explores its cultivation during the downtime of sugarcane farming. It highlights the challenges posed by acidic soils and presents gypsum as an effective solution to improve soil quality, enhancing calcium levels while reducing aluminum toxicity. The findings demonstrate that gypsum application can significantly boost ethanol yields, making it a valuable resource for biomass energy farmers looking to extend their production season.
