Ethanol Growth and Policy in U S Agriculture
From 1979 to 1988 production rose to over 825 million gallons with ethanol blends reaching about 8 percent of gasoline sales, while some states exceed 25 percent. The Clean Air Act would favor oxygenated fuels, potentially exempting blends from volatility standards. Corn remains the primary ethanol feedstock, with 2.5 gallons per bushel and a one billion gallon production increase consuming about 400 million bushels. Impacts vary: corn growers gain, soybeans and livestock sectors face higher costs and competition. A federal subsidy supports ethanol production.
