This, according to a report from Brownfield, which you can find here.
The Report said the new Nebraska-based business is contracting with farmers for their corn stover. Plans are to use the residue as the raw product for a cellulosic ethanol plant in central Nebraska, which could begin production in 2012.
Farmer Paul Kenney of Amherst is the president of Energy Grains Biomass. He says they will need 83,000 acres of stover for the first year of production by the proposed 20-million gallon plant.
