Abstract:
This presentation will summarize existing information on components of selected nutrient cycles in ethanol production systems using corn grain as the feedstock. Specific cycle components include the amount of nutrients removed from the field with corn grain harvest, nutrient cycling and transformations in the ethanol production facility, and nutrient contents in byproducts leaving the facility.
