Nebraska gasohol plan cited Brazil making fuel from crops
A UPI report notes Brazil already uses alcohol from sugar cane for auto fuel and could supply 20 percent of Brazilian gasoline by the early 1980s. Nebraska has funded gasohol development at its university with tax credits, while experts cite rising oil prices and improved grain-to-fuel processing as economic factors. Grants cover most distillery and planting costs for alcohol fuels, with dozens of projects approved.

Senator Murphy defended the veto and urged the Legislature to act as a third branch of government.
