Ethanol prices
The price of corn has little to do with the price of ethanol. Instead, ethanol prices tend to track the price of gasoline. As demand for gasoline rises, the price of ethanol tends to rise as well. Ethanol is less expensive than other oxygenate sources and costs less than ordinary unleaded gasoline.
