“Ethanol?”
I would dearly like to eliminate that subsidy - mainly because I don’t like putting the crap into my gas tanks, but also because I think it the height of folly to subsidize the burning of food as fuel - it raises food prices worldwide (which sucks if you’re poor), and the lower demand for real fuel slows down exploration.
But I’m sure that the Swamp Creatures only added to the subsidy.

Ethanol is covered by the Environmental Protection Agency, not in the Farm Bill.
The Farm Bill is actually 80% food stamps and about 10% crop insurance.
