[Georgia Girl 2]

Corn needs to be produced for food. Its about the least efficient way to produce ethanol.

1 acre of Sorghum will produce about 800 gallons of ethanol where 1 acre of corn will produce around 441 gallons and you have to add a lot more nitrogen to corn crops than sweet sorghum.

Grain sorghum (milo) is about identical to corn for ethanol production.
