"Won’t catch on - the ag industry will fight it. They are getting fat off of the subsidies and mandates of the current “burn our food for fuel” policy."

I think the income from 15,000 gallons of diesel per acre per year would dwarf any possible subsidies currently given to produce ethanol.

I hope this works,but if my math is right it would take 15,000 acres to produce 15,000 bbl/day of diesel (say a conventional small oil field development)
