Thread Name: BS: The Corn Thing
Subject: RE: BS: The Corn Thing
Are the corn syrup and ethanol in any way complementary production outcomes-- in other words, is that one kernel of corn separated into the two products, or does each product require its own kernel?
And yes I know my landlord is a small-potatoes farmer, but I suspect the subsidies trickle down to that level in some small way because he's been able to retain his newish large tractors-- I know the lactating dairy cows he breeds and sells aren't making enough to make those tractor-mortgage payments.
