Archer Daniels Midland Company (NYSE: ADM | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) is trading up .62% after the August 26, 2008 joint announcement by the company along with Deere & Company (NYSE: DE ) and Monsanto Company (NYSE: MON | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating) that they have agreed to collaborate on research to explore technologies and processes to turn crop residues into feed and bioenergy products.
The companies will work together to identify environmentally and economically sustainable methods for the harvest, storage and transport of corn stover -- the stalks, leaves and cobs of corn plants. Corn stover can be used in feed for animals, as biomass to generate steam and electricity or as a cellulosic feedstock for biofuel production.
By creating feed and energy products from crop byproducts, farmers can produce more products without farming more acres, and increase the value derived from each acre.
Stover is usually left on the field, where, in proper amounts, it helps reduce soil erosion and build up soil organic matter. A 170-bushel-per-acre corn crop, which was the average last year in Iowa, also produces about four dry tons of stover. The United States Department of Agriculture forecasts that in 2008, farmers will harvest 12.3 billion bushels of corn, resulting in approximately 290 million tons of stover.
