Why waste that much arable land growing something that is marginally above the break even point for EROEI? (And driving up food prices in the process as land that SHOULD be used to grow crops for human consumption is used to grow a bio source that requires almost as much energy to plant/maintain/harvest/refine as it yields after processing?)

shmike is exactly correct....corn based ethanol is NOT a viable alternative energy source....cut the subsidies on corn...go back to raising productive and economically viable crops.
