| Another logistics problem compounding the alcohol revolution, according to reports that I have read, is the transportation of spent grain byproduct to the area where the feedyards exit. As corn supplies become tight, due to the use by the alcohol operations, the price of corn rises, and feedyards struggle to feed cattle. The grain hull and residue, minus the starch, has to then be transported to animal feeding areas. In the Dodge City area, this will not be so much of a problem with all the area feedlots. However, in other areas of the country, this could cause transportation problems and costs. |
