Re: [RC] better alternative to Corn for ethanol - Truman Prevatt

I don't know but I suspect in sugar cane and corn both it has to do with there is little processing required to get to the form of sugar to produce the alcohol. Doesn't it take a significant amount of processing to extract the sugar from beets?

Another crop that should work is sorghum.
