Hve you seen that that the Uof Illnois as well as some other ag schools are planting 44,000 plants per acre? Man that could yield a huge amount of corn if they can figure out how to make it work in the field, considering that we are planting 28,000 to 29,000 per acre this year with a projected yeild of 150.2 bushels per acred.
I expect that we will end up exporting ethanol in the future because we are going to be swimming in it.
Nice to see someone else who has been in agriculture on this board. A breath of fresh air.
