What feedstock will U.S. EnviroFuels use?
The initial platform will be to use corn which can be brought in by rail or barge from the Midwest. However, U.S. EnviroFuels is committed to working with the local agricultural community to produce crops for ethanol. Citrus farmers in Florida who were hit hard by canker may consider growing crops suited for ethanol production. Options include corn, sorghum (a cousin of corn) and sweet sorghum. Sorghum is well-suited for Florida because it requires less water than corn to grow.
