I'd love to see the look on your face as you tried to eat feed corn. Not a country baw, huh?
I think this every time I see the city boys railing about ethanol.

Do you have a reference to a subset of corn trading pricing that identifies feed corn as something different than commodity corn.
If you are talking about "on the cob" that does make a difference. But fresh corn does not have a very good shelf life for shipping to third world companies.
I do have a little bit of country. My first job was in High School scrapping sugar cane stalks for 90 cent per hour

Quit converting corn to ethanol in the US for gasoline blending.

I think you mean “fuel corn”. My understanding from a few years ago when the government started pushing ethanol, is that there are distinct types of corn used for food and fuel purposes, and farmers need to plan in advance which type they’re going to grow.
I’d very much like to see the US get completely away from ethanol, but that’s what the government is currently using to buy farming votes.

WOW, I wasn't aware only one thing could grow in those fields. Thanks for the information.

Not only that but it’s all roundup ready corn. I’m not a hippie but when I garden I try to use the least amount of chemicals as possible, can’t be good for the gut or cancer

Yellow field corn that is used for ethanol and animal feed is also used for cornmeal, corn chips, corn syrup, grits, etc. You just can't eat it as corn on the cob or canned.
Also, you can adjust what is planted in those fields and go with sweet corns or other crops entirely.
Ethanol is and alays was a boondgle subsidy for farmers. shite needs to end.
This country shold put way more focus on growing grains for neutral grain spirits and whiskey.
