ethanol, the stuff they are putting in gas now, it is made from corn, what farmers like to feed their cows. so the price of corn goes up and so does the price of milk.

The cost of corn is going through the roof because they are making a car fuel with it now and corn is what cows eat. Gas prices are increasing too so the big milk trucks cost more to drive.

I asked a manager of a store that not too long ago and he said that the dairies are saying that it has to do with high gas prices. All I can say is I don't like the cost being so high.

The cost of corn to feed them because of the gas shortage.
Where I live there has not been enough rain, so the cows produce less milk.
