Company to make ethanol from sweet sorghum juice in south

Renergie, Inc. will make ethanol from sweet sorghum juice in Louisiana and Florida. This presents several advantages over corn kernel ethanol, including lower energy use for processing and cultivation. Sorghum also thrives with less water and fertilization, while yielding more ethanol per acre than corn kernels. It also tolerates poor soils and widely varied soil types, including soils that are not very well suited for food production.
