JM> DS> Does anyone understand what is happening with the price of milk?
JM> DS> In the past month the local price has gone from $2.90 to $4.00
JM> DS> and more per gallon.

JM> DS> Meanwhile the price of gasoline seems to be dropping back under
JM> DS> the $3 mark down to $2.75 or so.

JM> DS> Someone said something about production problems in Australia --
JM> DS> but that seems far fetched as a cause.

JM> I haven't seen that high a jump, but my price per
JM> gallon inched up to $2.69/gal (2% milk) over the last
JM> few months. The political talk of converting corn
JM> (specifically) to energy in the form of fuel alcohol
JM> is putting corn prices way high, making the major
JM> feed for dairy cows more expensive. The lie in this
JM> is that only corn is fermentable to fuel alcohol!
JM> But maybe it is the most efficient, I haven't researched
JM> any studies.

It's only the most efficient for the bean counter's bottom lines as it 
requires the least amount of infrastructure changes and start-up lead 
time. All this stuff has been researched and reported in Mother Earth
