The "new" diesel gas made with soybean is now on sale at our local Farm Bureau Co-op....It's cheaper than the gasoline.
And - how much of that is subsidized?

See, if it were TRULY 'cheaper than gasoline' I believe we'd be 'drowning' in that stuff ...

DOn't know the answer to the subsidy question, but do know that they aren't the only one to carry it....If supply and demand are the issues....They're having a bit of problem keeping up with the demand....BTW the same station was the first to offer lead free gasoline....It's everywhere now, but IIRC it was initially subsidized.

There was a very informative article in our local paper, but that was last year. If you are interested I'm sure the Soy bean farmers have material on the intrenet.
