Very interested to see this. British Sugar, Dupont and BP have just invested 200 million pounds creating a bio-ethanol plant at the side of the Humber Estuary in the UK. It'll eventually take 3 million tonnes of wheat which will take out British wheat exports at a stroke. A bi-product of the process will be animal feed. They're already encouraging us to sign up to send our wheat into the plant. I welcome the additional market but worry about large corporate control of fuel & food.
do you get your DDGS at a reasonable price? some people on the internet blame ethanol for their livestock feed prices. I am a huge fan of ethanol, and use it everyday in my car. but i realize everyone has their own opinion on weather or not ethanol is a good idea. in my opinion the fact that they only use the starch that is hard to digest anyway takes it out of the food VS fuel debate a little. corn ethanol still has some issues, but i think it is a good starting place. what do you think?
