Brazil Sugarcane-Ethanol Chain and CBIO Carbon Credit Prices, 1976-2024

A study analyzing the sugarcane-ethanol supply chain and the formation of carbon credit (CBIO) prices under Brazil's RenovaBio program. The dataset likely contains time-series data for agricultural production (1976–2023), industrial conversion (1981–2023), and CBIO market activity (monthly, 2020–2024). It was authored by Éder Benedito Simonato and last updated in May 2026.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between agricultural productivity and sugarcane output based on the described regression results.
• Analyzing the influence of milling throughput and sugar allocation on ethanol production share in the industrial phase.
• Investigating how CBIO credit issuance, traded quantity, and fuel market conditions affect carbon credit prices.
• Studying the short-run price adjustments of decarbonization credits in response to the ethanol-to-gasoline consumption ratio.

Strengths

• Covers a long time span, with agricultural data from 1976 to 2023.
• Includes monthly CBIO market data from February 2020 to August 2024.
• Analysis is based on specific regression coefficients and statistical significance (p-values) reported in the description.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The primary file is a DOCX document (701.4 KB), suggesting the data may be embedded in a textual report rather than a standalone structured file.
