IRGINIA BIO-FUEL CONFERENCE http://www.ppvir.org/pdf/Prospectus.pdf
I found it very informative. The distinction between "cellulosic ethanol"
where more components of the plant are utilized than in traditional corn-based
ethanol manufacturing whare only the starchy corn kernel is used. Related
to horses ... The conference focus was switchgrass which after a quick
internet search, I found may not be good horse forage as it can cause
photosensitivity. Also, as horse people who rely on gas-guzzling vehicles
to haul our livestock I think we need to be proactive in educating ourselves and
then doing whatever we're able to promote and/or demand improvements.
