RESUMO

This work presents the technological development of the sugarcane and alcohol industrial sector in the State of Sao Paulo. It is emphasized the most important points of the technological modernization of the plants regarding the main international producers centers. The sugarcane businessman from the State Sao Paulo realized that if they did not improved the quality of the product and they continued to produce sugar with an outdated technology, they would be eliminated of the world market. Ahead of this situation, Copersucar - The Brazilian Sugarcane Research Institute implemented a Modemization Prograrn aiming to elevate the productivity of the plants from Sao Paulo into international levels defined by the plants of the countries that introduced more advanced technologies, mostly Southern Africa, Australia and Hawaii. That was possible through a Program by which Copersucar selected and implanted the most developed and appropriated technologies to the Brazilian sugarcane industrial park. The studies done allow us to the conclusion that the dynamic of the sugar cane industry, summed to the Copersucar efforts gave the consolidation of the Sugar Cane Industries Modernization Program at the State of Sao Paulo. That allowed to overcome the technologies limitations compared with the development of new technologies, what gave higher levels of productivity to the State of Sao Paulo sugar cane industries at a similar level of the international industry, which used more modems technologies
