So, we farmers in Minnesota got together and used our money to build ethanol plants so we could raise the price of our crops from the 1980s.
Did -exactly- what you are saying, got together and raised our prices a dime, the local basis is what went up.
And look at all the hate on here for ethanol, everybody loves the big oil monopoly much better, hate on those independent farmers that dare raise the price of a box of corn flakes a nickel!
The NFO deal never woulda worked then it wouldn’t work now.
