- Ethanol - Enforce The Borders - U.S.30 Ethanol Editor, Times-Union: A number of ethanol plants have been proposed for northeastern Indiana.There is a significant amount of overlap in the corn supplying areas for these plants and they will be vying for the same corn.It is highly probable that excess corn is grown in the area, but it is not clear how increased demand will change this.Marketing issues are complex and there is no clear answer as to who will gain from the ethanol ventures. We know that the effect of fermenting the carbohydrate (sugar) portion of the corn takes this part of the corn out of the food system.This is the part of corn that provides high fructose corn syrup found in many foods.At this point, we are not certain how energy use will interact with the food uses of corn.
