In the 2025/26 season Paraíba crushed 6,932,209 t of cane (14.2% of the Northeast) and produced 216,786 t of sugar and 390,775 m³ of ethanol (180,184 m³ anhydrous and 210,591 m³ hydrous). It is the Northeast's 3rd largest cane producer and 2nd largest ethanol producer — it ranked 1st in ethanol in 2022/23.
The profile is ethanol-oriented: each tonne of cane yielded 56.4 L of ethanol and 31.3 kg of sugar. The chain is circular: bagasse fuels the boilers and cogeneration, vinasse and filter cake return to the fields as fertilizer, and biogenic CO₂ from fermentation and yeast are already sold as products.
