Diesel/ fertilizer prices are tied to OIL, so that arguement is
faulty, it is easier to buy $5 fuel with $7 corn than it is with $3
corn.
Will the farmer scrap his 1066-915-73 Ford ?? Let's no-till and
take that into this part of your arguement.
For arguing let's say you get 25MPG on regular IMPORTED gas,
per your -25% E85=18.75MPG. 16gal tank of reg=400miles
per tank x $4.25=$68 or $0.17 per mile, 16gal tank of E85=
300 miles per tank x $3.55= $56.80 or $0.189 per mile. For
0.02 that's 2 cents per mile or $240.00 per year I'll burn ethanol
from next door and not sent it to the mid-east.
