More ethanol demand means higher corn prices
As a result, prices for some inputs for cattle (water, land, and grain) will go up and others (distiller's grains) will go down. How the long-term effects will play out are yet to be seen, but it will be especially amusing to observe how the anti-growth lobby will react. On one hand, they're stridently against "urban sprawl," but how will they feel about the fact that the biggest check against that urban sprawl may come from higher land prices driven by greater demand for corn?
