Why the hell didn’t the poultry and livestock interests sock this ethanol crap back when the worldwide devastation could have been stopped?

Big Agribusiness is hardly a single entity. Where was Tyson’s Food and that gang three years ago? Don’t they have any influence?

I read that a byproduct of ethanol production is a corn mash that is used for feed. They may well have thought that the cost of feed would go down with the increase in ethanol production.
