Alcohol from Wheat and Fruit Not Profitable Says Report

An Agricultural Department study with Victoria distillers finds producing industrial alcohol from damaged wheat or fruit is not profitable at current prices. One bushel of wheat yields 2s 6d to 3s 4d per gallon gross, less processing costs. Apples yield about 195 proof gallons valued at 16s 5d gross, with extraction and distillation costs exceeding value. Wine spirit from grapes for fortification remains more valuable.
