I see where you are coming from John, cause at a local biodiesel course last year sponsored by the local Agrolosists a biodiesel expert from Manitoba spent the day out here. He did say that after the canola oil is extracted from the seed the waste can then be used to feed livestock. But he also gave us some stupid numbers like if Canada wants to go to 7% bio in all diesel sold at the pump, it would greatly have to increase Canola production, becaused even if all of the Canola currently grown in Canada was used it would only be able to create like 1 or 2% of all diesel sold here. so a lot more Canola would have to be grown, which as cruiser-guy says could impact a lot more agricultural land used for other food right now. bio fuels are definatley not the answer to our dependence on oil, unless they can some how harvest algea over the oceans, and even still seems like a long shot. Man we really strayed from the original question, calphi27 I think either way you go you will have problems getting the ingredients. are you planning on growing your own Canola or Corn?
