Is the top already off new ethanol expansion--corn prices the key

January 3, 2007

Ethanol Update - Will Current Corn Prices Halt the Boom (page 6) | www.econ.iastate.edu

One question of this new future for the US ag sector has been answered--corn prices have already gone up...up almost 75% in just a few months.  Now the question is does the ethanol industry still have the momentum to go where it seemed to be headed last fall in terms of potential …or is the top already off of the expansion for ethanol?

Brazil's success in developing it's sugarcane based ethanol industry is being held-up around the world as a great example of the right-way for a government to kick-start an industry.
