Note: All figures are rounded to nearest 0.1 billion litres; comparison column notes “no change” if difference is less than 0.05 billion litres. Ethanol numbers are
for fuel ethanol only. Table ranking is by total volumes of biofuel produced in 2012 (from preliminary data), and not by energy content. Where totals do not add
up, the difference is due to rounding.
