I live in an area where Dairy, Poultry, Corn, and Almonds are the heart of farming. For about the last 18 months there has been an Ethenol plant being built nearby. The farmers I talk to on a daily basis are screaming at what it happening to the price of Corn which is normally bought by the Dairy and Poultry Producers for feed but is begining to be warehoused for Ethenol thereby driving the cost of Chcken, and Dairy products through the roof.
