Analysis of Agricultural Production for Alcohol Production in the Light of World Trends

According to researches of analysts decrease in production of ethyl alcohol is marked, annual decrease makes more than four percent a year, and this tendency worsens. In the current conditions of increased demand, it is necessary to develop mechanisms to stimulate alcohol producers, but as the basis is an organic product, and the raw material for production is agricultural products, so it is necessary to increase the production of grain, potatoes and other types of products suitable as raw materials. Against the background of increase of world prices for grain, ethanol and other goods, the problem of own production passes into the category of main factors directed to economic and in general to national security because of increase of need in disinfectants in connection with situation on coronovirus. Leaders in production are the USA and China, where production capacities are growing rapidly, in these countries biotechnological complexes with full cycle of non-waste production are created. Growth in demand for methanol, particularly in China, has taken place against the backdrop of further declines in production capacity in the USA, where production costs were on average 40% higher than in other countries. Methanol production capacity in the USA has been decreasing annually, resulting in increased imports.
