From KROHNE, Inc.
The conversion of corn into fuel
ethanol is once again gaining
popularity and is an appealing
business opportunity for farm
communities and agribusinesses
in the mid-west and other
regions of the U.S. and Canada.
Investors are attracted by the
prospect of more than doubling
the monetary value of a bushel of
corn by converting it into 2.75
gallons of fuel ethanol, 17
pounds of animal feed, and other
value added byproducts.
In the U.S. alone, over 120 plants
are now producing ethanol from
corn feedstock, and another 76
are under construction. Dozens
more are in various stages of
planning, with total domestic
production capacity expected to
double during the next five years.
