You don’t think the $100 an acre the government gives out to plant corn versus pasture affects acres? (Crop insurance subsidies, checks wired into farmers accounts, e10 mandates)
Free country my ass! Hard for the cow guy to compete against that.
You say it’s a free country, stop trying to force everyone to use ethanol.
You would prefer wind farms the size of Texas and Solar farms the size of Iowa and transmission corridors the size of Indiana? Plus wind farms up and down both coasts..
Again it's a free country.. knock yourself out.. personally I think the markets are correcting.. to incentivize the cow man or woman.. as Milton Friedman would say.. "Free to Choose."
However, we need a level playing field. Small refineries shutting out smaller ethanol producers to offer a cheaper better product to the consumer.. that's what the issue is this week.
