| About 35 percent of each year's corn harvest is wasted as so-called corn stover. "The real holy grail is to identify an enzyme that can convert the waste from the corn crop," he says in the Financial Times article. "If we could develop an enzyme that could also be grown in the crop, that would allow us to convert all that waste into ethanol, then we are really on to a winner. That's the real prize."
I'm always amazed at what some consider to be waste.
On my farm the feedstock for organic matter is precious. O.M. is everything to me. | |
