This will NOT upset food production, no one ever ever ever NEEDS to eat sugar cane period!

What was growing on that land before they planted sugar cane for ethanol?

it comes from Brazil, which has always grown sugar cane for it’s own ethanol needs...as an energy independent country now, they can also export the raw material needed to make it here.
