Seems to me that if a truck pulled up to a pump and it said 'petro
diesel $2.50' and 'biodiesel $2.49' they would ALWAYS be sold out of
biodiesel. You could sell as much as you can grow. Its just up to some
co-op of farmers and truckers to get the production cost down so when
the retail cost is competitive, there is 3% or 5% or 10% profit to
divvy up to the partners/shareholders. Maybe this US Biodiesel company
could garner some significant percentage of domestic diesel. 10%? 50%?
Maybe the spreadsheet doesnt generate any cash flow at $2.50... just
wait a few months till its $3.00 a gal.... then start the trucks
rolling.
