Ethanol production mandates ensure its expansion and high commodity prices
Apr 01, 2008, Beef Magazine, By Wes Ishmael Contributing Editor
Usage mandates will drive the ethanol industry, even though profit margins have been narrow, says James Mintert, Kansas State University agricultural economist. When you mandate usage levels, you take economics out of the equation. Though the truth of that has been painfully obvious to cattle producers competing for grain with the millstone of federal ethanol subsidies tied 'round their necks, the

Ethanol Impacts Will Continue For Quite Some Time
May 25, 2007, Beef Magazine, Troy Marshall
It's almost mind-boggling to contemplate that up to 40% of this year's corn crop could be used in ethanol production. The demand for ethanol and its financial incentives are only growing as

Ethanol Fallout
Jan 01, 2007, Beef Magazine, By Larry Stalcup
Can a feedyard afford to ship in corn at $3-$4/bu.? What if it's too far from an ethanol plant to receive the byproduct? Can it match a plant's bids?

A 100-million-gal. ethanol plant is under construction in Hereford by Panda Energy International. Inc., a Dallas-based company that will count on 1,500 tons of manure/day to fire the plant

Ethanol Production--Dependence on Imported Oil, Higher Corn Prices
Nov 30, 2006, Beef Magazine
Reducing American dependence on oil and petroleum products via increased domestic ethanol production is doable, and could benefit ag on a net basis, though livestock sectors may pay the price.

Ethanol In Brazil--Ethanol, Corn Demand for Ethanol, Sugarcane Ethanol
Nov 14, 2006, Beef Magazine
Growing corn demand for ethanol has many beef producers across the country more than a bit nervous. But, if you think ramped-up ethanol production in the U.S. is impacting the dynamics of domestic cattle production, a look south indicates a similar story. But, in Brazil, the competition isn't over corn -- it's over another kind of grass--sugarcane.

Ethanol Changes EVERYTHING | "it's probably the most dramatic change in agriculture since WW II"
Jan 01, 2008, Beef Magazine, By Wes Ishmael Contributing Editor
As recently as six months ago, or this morning, the immediate and visible changes wrought by subsidized ethanol production seemed much like those that accompany a dry spell or some other temporary happenstance. Not much fun to endure, but manageable with familiar adjustments as the rest of the industry hums to long-established fundamentals. Now, though, it seems more apparent that everything we knew

What effect will the rush to ethanol have on cattlemen? There are a lot more questions than answers.

Ethanol, Corn Will Weigh On Livestock Industry
Apr 06, 2007, Beef Magazine
Future ethanol production and demand for distiller's grains will lead to lower cattle prices and higher consumer meat prices, David Anderson, a Texas Cooperative Extension economist, told attendees of the 2007 Texas Ag Forum in Austin recently

Falling Ethanol Prices Cutting Plant Profits
Nov 21, 2007, Beef Magazine, Elton Robinson, Farm Press
Recent declines in ethanol prices have sharply reduced profitability for ethanol producers, USDA's chief economist Keith Collins recently told the House Ag Committee.

Ethanol By-Product Raising Antibiotic Concerns
Jul 16, 2009, Beef Magazine
Sometimes technology produces unintended consequences. That appears to be the case with the ethanol by-product, distiller's grain (DG), which is fed

Ethanol commentary was on target
Sep 01, 2003, Beef Magazine
You guys deserve lots of accolades for being willing to tell the truth about ethanol (Bursting The Ethanol Bubble, August BEEF, page 30). With its price fixing, Archer Daniels Midland (ADM) has proved that it doesn't care about agriculture. The firm has sold the nation a bill of goods on ethanol and it damages production agriculture. Ethanol is a net energy loss and, as taxpayers, we should stand

Ethanol production--Ethanol production requires increased acreage
Oct 03, 2006, Beef Magazine
...by the 2010 crop year there will be a need for an additional 10 million acres of corn than the average planted acres during 2005 and 2006. This acreage is needed to meet the demand for ethanol and maintain exports and feed demand.

Ethanol subsidies unnecessary, study finds
Nov 01, 2007, Beef Magazine, compiled by BEEF staff
An Economic Perspective, a study by Thomas Elam of FarmEcon.com, indicates the ethanol industry no longer needs a high level of federal support. Elam says the influence of the federal support program, which consists of direct support to small ethanol producers and a tax credit of 51/gal. to fuel blenders who add ethanol to gasoline, has shifted from making ethanol feasible to causing significant increases

Ethanol Uptick And Corn Use Examined
Mar 26, 2009, Beef Magazine
What would happen if recent proposals to increase the ethanol blend limit to 12.5% or 15%

Ethanol co-products make ideal feed
Jun 01, 2006, Beef Magazine, compiled by Stephanie Veldman
As ethanol production expands in the Midwest, the availability of ethanol co-products also increases. Ethanol co-products' high protein and energy content make them ideal as animal feed, particularly in confinement feeding situations. Kansas State University researchers recently examined co-products' potential in growing diets for cattle. They studied dried distillers grains from either corn or grain
