Ethanol Mandate for Iowa?

More plants cost more money to build and operate. Higher costs and lower
prices must mean bigger losses and even bigger government subsidies.

Don't the farmers have a lot to gain by using (making corn for)
ethanol?

Only when the corn is heavily subsidized. A farmer cannot make a
profit from selling the corn outright to an ethanol producer. The
fact is there are so many ethanol plants up and running and so many
more being built or planned that the price of ethanol will continue to
plummet.
