The Tata Chemicals Limited (TCL) http://www.tatachemicals.com/ , a leading company in the Tata group of industries joined hands with ICRISAT by signing a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for entering the Sweet Sorghum Ethanol Research Consortium (SSERC) recently. Dr William Dar, Director General of ICRISAT, and Mr Homi R Khusrokhan, Managing Director of TCL, signed the MOA at Hyderabad.
According to Dr William Dar, the partnership will go a long way in enhancing the commercialization of sweet sorghum for bioethanol production. Production of ethanol from sweet sorghum as a biofuel can provide additional income to dryland farmers and does not compromise their food security.
Through the ICRISAT Sweet Sorghum Ethanol Research Consortium (SSERC) the institute promotes technology for producing the biofuel through public-private partnership.
