India's central government set 2026-27 conditions for ethanol production, capping ethanol from surplus FCI rice at 324 crore litres over nine months and damaged grains at 160 crore litres annually. Most cane-based feedstock use is also banned, so the cap leaves ethanol makers more reliant on maize.
Limiting rice and damaged-grain feedstock pushes ethanol producers toward maize, tightening corn supply for poultry, dairy and starch users and supporting corn prices. Lower rice ethanol use reduces demand for surplus rice.
