Insight into the Corn Oil Industry

Here is part of this Monday's filing for LAKE AREA CORN PROCESSORS, LLC out of Wentworth, South Dakota.  Looks like they are producing at a rate just under 1mmgy of corn oil.  They are believed to have a non-patented COES and are not yet in GreenShift litigation. (click to related Blog).

"During the first quarter of 2010, we sold approximately 1,772,000 pounds of corn oil [rate of 932,632mmgy @7.6#/gallon] compared to approximately 331,000 pounds of corn oil during the first quarter of 2009. This increase in the number of pounds of corn oil that we sold was the result of the fact that we only operated our corn oil extraction equipment for a short period of time during the first quarter of 2009. The average price we received for our corn oil during the first quarter of 2010 was approximately 79% higher than the price we received for the first quarter of 2009. This was an increase of approximately $0.11 per pound. Management attributes this increase in corn oil prices with rising energy prices. Management anticipates that corn oil prices will be stable or may fall depending on the demand from the biodiesel market. Currently most biodiesel production in the United States is idled due to the fact that the biodiesel blenders’ tax credit was allowed to expire. Corn oil can be used as the feedstock to produce biodiesel. We may experience decreased demand for corn oil if the biodiesel blenders’ tax credit is not renewed. We are continuing to refine our operation of the corn oil extraction equipment and anticipate that this may lead to increased production in the future."
