No, it isn't. It also doesn't or barely affects feed prices.

Which is it? You can't have it both ways.

FYI, I grew up in Iowa. I lived on a farm. I worked on a farm. All my friends lived and worked on farms. There's a REASON Iowa Corn Farmers LOVE ethanol subsidies: IT RAISES CORN PRICES by reducing the amount of land Feed Corn is grown on.

You simply do not know what you're talking about.

Yeah, not me...I don't know anything about the Sandhills.

IT RAISES CORN PRICES by reducing the amount of land Feed Corn is grown on.

I guess you missed the part where digested ethanol mash is then fed to cattle. Feed corn/ethanol mash...same thing.

Beef prices were effected by the recent drought, as cattle are being kept off the market to rebuild the herds.

Now, explain the outrageous prices on potato chips.
