[QUOTE="Bigfoot, post: 1052188, member: 17956"] I guess I'm just kinda sour grapes, although I'm trying not to be. For years now, we've all fed what amounts to a byproduct. I haven't fed cracked corn, and sybm in a long time. I've been paying a premium for products, that I'm not sure have any value at all, to anybody but a cattleman. The product that they are producing is subsidized to the gills. Seems like with corn below $5 the cast off should be well under $100 a ton, not higher than the corn it's made from. That's the part the gets my goat. How can I buy corn cheaper than the byproduct? All this ethanol hupla, and how it will help me the beef producer. The corn supply has been fueling these plants for a long time now. We've lined up like good little boys and girls for the DDG. Now that corn is down, I've gotta help drive the price right back up by feeding it. [/QUOTE]
