Ethanol expansion in Iowa faces EPA rule setback
About 7 percent of Iowa corn goes to ethanol. The EPA interpretation of California emissions rules could halt a $350 million expansion and 100 million bushels of corn usage. ADM’s $68 million Cedar Rapids project is canceled while Cargill’s Eddyville expansion continues. Stadiman warns of delayed price effects and seeks 60 days to contest EPA interpretation.
