A lot of it outside right now, we have so much corn and we cant even get it inside when its raining and snowing on it and we should be turning that into ethanol and ve the consumers a r rht to buy these higher blends at a lower cost and instead, were kind of i think. So, its frustrating, but all we can do is roll up our sleeves it is the final rule. Shaw adds. On products like biodiesel. The number is 300 million gallons up. But thats 25 percent below what was asked. And that doesnt account for the 400 million gallons of imported argentinian biodiesel. And the update on the Renewable Fuels standard is already in the grain markets. It was expecting june estimates on ethanol production. You know, over late yesterday afternoon, the epa a d raise sliggly the rfs for biofuels. It as anticipated. As our usage for corn ethanol is going to increase in 2016 from what was anticipated in june.
