The sun rises early Thursday, October 2, 2003 on workers erecting a 125-foot, 400,000-bushel silo built by McCormick Construction out of Rockford, Minn. The ethanol plant grinds 50,000 bushels of corn per day, making roughly 2.7 gallons of ethanol per bushel of corn, or about 45 million gallons of ethanol per year. The raw corn is not wasted in the process, rather, it is stripped of it's starch, and then dried and sold as cattle feed addative.
