In the United States, there is a vast supply of agricultural products being produced in the central region - particularly corn. Corn is easily handled and stored, but cannot remain in extended storage due to spoilage. To find an alternative use for this excess grain, some farmers have turned to burning this corn as a heat source during the winter.With the rising costs of gas, oil, and other non-renewable energies skyrocketing, there has been rising interest in alternative and renewable energies.
