You get almost as much heat from burning the corn stover that's left over

itself is a mystery to me. Why not grow a crop more suited as a fuel?
Something with tiny seeds and a lot of stalk. Leafy spurge for example is a
very hardy weed that contains a good deal of oil and has been used in the
past as a heating fuel.


I'm burning the oil, not the actual kernels. Corn can produce biodiesel,
ethanol, and animal feed all from the same bushel.
