Despite strong hints the Ontario government may back away from its earlier ethanol commitments, it’s full steam ahead for the $132-million ethanol plant in Aylmer, says a company official.
Chances are good that an ethanol plant spearheaded by farm communities in Brant, Norfolk, Oxford and Elgin Counties could open for business earlier than expected. And even though chances are equally good that the fledgling plant will encounter corn prices much higher than anticipated, the head of the cooperative developing the facility says that’s not likely to be a problem.
