It's not a shame to burn food for heat...
It's a shame it's
MORE AFFORDABLE
to burn food for heat!
You can still win if corn goes up!
~ 1 gallon of furnace oil contains 140,000 BTUs
~1 pound of corn contains 8,500 BTUs
Roughly 16.5 pounds of corn contains the same amount of heat as 1 gallon of
furnace fuel!
Don't forget:
When you sell your crops, you pay income tax on the money received;
When you buy furnace fuel you pay tax on the fuel;
When you burn the crop that you produce...
NO TAX!
