In 2004, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) [64] published a report that pictures a much more favorable outcome for the production of ethanol from com than the Canadian publication in 2001 that we have just discussed. The USDA claimed that the bioethanol output from corn is 1.67 units for each unit of input of fossil fuel (heat, electricity, chemicals, fertilizers, and insecticides) and 1.06 against 1 without allocating energy input to the by-products. These results seem to contradict the criticism of other prominent researchers, David Pimentel and Tad Patzek from Cornell University and the University of California in Berkeley, respectively, to whom we will refer again below.
