The hell it does!
That feed is played out...it’s just filler, no energy left.
Why do you think Beef, Pork, and Poultry prices have doubled in the last few years and with the new mandate of 15% mix, will continue to rise.
Not to mention feeds for all kinds of domestic animals and I still have not addressed human food.
Any society that essentially burns it’s own food by converting it to a fuel is not likely long for this world and definitely long in the tooth as they say. It’s suicidal idiocy.
I have not even addressed the fact that it’s less efficient and therefore makes less power, creates more heat due to increased throttle, this makes more emissions, increased engine wear and increased costs.
Ethanol has screwed up the entire supply chain. Food costs are higher across the board and the only input to cause it was the price of corn.
I think it should be made optional and a consumer choice, then we will see just how popular and needed it is.
You don’t know what you are talking about.
The ‘filler’ is 30% protein, is loved by animals, and is also a valuable export commodity.
Those interested in facts can find ‘ddgs’ in their favorite search engine.
“Why do you think Beef, Pork, and Poultry prices have doubled in the last few years and with the new mandate of 15% mix, will continue to rise.”
The price of all the other crops (wheat, soy, etc.) has also increased because those crops have been replaced by ethanol corn. Even the Greenies are moving/have moved against ethanol because of all the water it takes to grow the corn (way more than wheat) and also to process it into ethanol.
