No, the sugarcane plantations are not organic. About 90 % of the sugarcane plantations used in Brazilian ethanol production is concentrated in the South-Central region of Brazil, located more than 2,500 km away from the Amazon region. The expansion of areas used to plant sugarcane is governed by Sugarcane Agroecological Zoning and Braskem does not own any sugarcane plantations.
