    The raw feed materials put into that refinery are more expensive than the value of the gas output.

    Yeah, but winter efficiency is going to be much lower, just like my PP. LOL

    That's why they make balers. :LOL: Then again, the guy in the picture doesn't seem to live in a place where they have balers or winters.

    Yeah, we just bought a side of beef steer direct from a local guy bypassing USDA and all the middlemen. His beef is 100% grass-fed. He is not even a farmer parse. He owns a tree service business, but as a side job, he just buys calves and lets them graze on his cleared land. Not exactly sure what he does during winter though. I am sure he is feeding hay.
