North Central Illinois
Come on. Obviously you are a cattle guy that resents ethanol because before it came along you were able to buy our corn for less than cost of production. You really think the farm economy as a whole would be better off with LDP prices for grains? I really don't see how. We have an unbelievable ability to grow corn and soybeans in this country. So much so that we are at the point where we could never even come close to using everything we produce without ethanol. Sure a year like this really puts a kink in the hose but we will work through this. I had livestock for a long time and realize what feed costs mean, but you simply aren't entitled to my corn for less than what it costs me to produce.

How much ethanol do we export to the Middle East? Just curious.
