      Before ethanol, lets say 2002ish era there was less corn produced. 9 billion bushels vs. todays 12 billion, and more cattle around.

        Most recent USDA corn production estimate is about 14.8 billion bushels. Will be reduced in upcoming releases with trade forecasts in the 13 to 14 billion bushel range (you pick your number). Hasbeen about 12 billion bushels for the US corn disappearance estimated to be 13.8 billion bushels (also likely reduced). Extra production has been more than used up by the ethanol industry but no room to grow as mandates are being met/fuel consumption is declining. also declining cattle numbers and impact on consumption.

          Always a numbers guy so appologize. Dropping corn yields by 10 bu/ace (166 down to 156) would reduce production by 900 million bushels or 22.5 million tonnes. That is about 3 times the size of this years likely western Canadian barley crop.

            You know Burbert, your language deserves one
            adjective, "pathetic." Your crap makes me feel
            like crying for you and sometimes BTO. Must be
            tough to live like that in a beautiful world.
