1 2 Risk and Profit Conference Breakout Session Presenters 9. Bio-Energy's Impact on U.S. and World Grain and Feed Markets Daniel O Brien <dobrien@ksu.edu> Daniel O Brien was raised on a grain and livestock farm in south central Nebraska, in which he still has an interest with his father and three brothers. He received both Bachelor of Science (197) and Master of Science (19) degrees in Agricultural Economics from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The focus of his M.S. thesis was on analyzing the impact of agricultural cooperatives on rural Nebraska fertilizer markets. O Brien then worked as an extension agent in western (Lincoln County) and northeastern (Pierce County) Nebraska for seven years beginning in early 191. While attending graduate school at Iowa State University beginning in 197, O Brien worked as an Extension Assistant in Agricultural Marketing, focusing on analysis of grain and livestock markets and price risk management strategies. He completed his Ph.D. in December 1993, focusing his dissertation research on developing a method by which to forecast the probability of alternative U.S. harvest time corn futures price outcomes. While working as Extension Farm Management Specialist in Northwest Iowa during 1993 through early 1995, he became heavily involved in analysis of the structural changes in the Iowa livestock industry associated with contract hog production. From March 1995 through May 23, O Brien worked as the Extension Agricultural Economist in Northwest Kansas based out of the Northwest Research and Extension Center in Colby. He held the position of Northwest Area Extension Administrative Director starting in June 23 before returning to his Extension Agricultural Economist position in January 27. Daniel O Brien s ongoing extension and applied research interests and efforts are in the areas of a) grain market supply-demand analysis, bioenergy impacts and price-income risk management strategies, b) grain industry market structure, conduct and performance focusing on grain handling and transportation issues, and c) economic analysis of irrigated and dryland cropping systems, and associated cropland leasing arrangements. Abstract/Summary Growth in bioenergy production in the U.S. since 26 has had a large impact on U.S. grain acreage, production and supply-demand balances, as well as on the agricultural industries using feedgrains and oilseeds. A report titled "Future Patterns of U.S. Grains, Biofuels and Livestock and Poultry Feeding" co-authored by Daniel O'Brien of KSU, and sponsored by the Council on Food, Agricultural and Resource Economics (CFARE) and other feed industry groups, examines several issues such as 1) biofuels' impact on livestock feed costs, 2) how saturation of the domestic ethanol market may slow growth in corn demand, 3) how livestock sector adjustments to grain market changes vary by species, and ) the longer term challenges facing the ethanol industry. These issues will be addressed and discussed in this session.

Source: John Gelbard, RINXchange The EPA requires that each gallon of renewable fuel produced have a unique serial number attached to it These "Renewable Identification Numbers (RINs)" are turned into the EPA each year by petroleum refiners to prove they have blended the required amount of renewable fuel into their gasoline Refiners can avoid blending renewables into gasoline themselves by purchasing excess RINs from other refiners who have used more renewable fuel than was required of them Anyone registered with the EPA can buy & sell RINs, which means that RINs function as somewhat of a renewable energy currency Ethanol RIN Stocks Calculations RINs = Renewable Identification Numbers for ethanol; (million gallons) RINs Less Less RFS Ending Banking Actual Starting Ethanol Ethanol RIN Cap (2% Banked (For only to Year RINs Production non advanced ) Stocks x ) RINs 27 6,521,7 1,21 1, 1, 2 1, 9,39 9, 2,19 2,1 2,1 29 2,1 1,93 1,5 2,53 2, 2, 21 2, 13,29 39, 3,3 2,52 2, ,52 13,9 1,195195,6 2,673 2,6 2,6 2(a) 2,6 13, ,2 2,163 2,76 2,163 2(b) 2,6 1, ,2 2,53 2,76 2,53 213** 13, 21** 1, 215** 15,

The blend wall is the upper limit to the total amount of ethanol that can be blended into U.S. gasoline. The blend wall is set by the 1% limit to blending ethanol in gasoline, with the exception of fuels sold to flex-fuel vehicles (FFVs) that are approved for higher blends such as E3 or E5. FFVs make up < 2 % of the car pool, but with limited availability of blender pumps in locations where the majority of those FFVs are located, the market share is much less. Increasing gasoline blends from E1 to E15 could solve the blend wall issue, but it creates other problems that would need to be resolved. The U.S. consumes billion gallons of gasoline / year If every gallon of gasoline included in the RFS were blended with 1% ethanol, refiners would hit the "blend wall" around billion gallons in 2
