The FCStone Renewable Fuels Group is a major force in the ethanol industry. By 2006, our group will provide risk management for over 1 billion gallons of ethanol and over 400 million bushels of corn. This accounts for over 20% of the total ethanol produced in the United States.
Due to our large presence in the ethanol market, we have a vast knowledge of the over all ethanol industry. Our group utilizes cash, futures and over-the-counter (OTC) products to help minimize risk and maximize margins for our ethanol customers.
FCStone’s Renewable Fuels Group currently works with ethanol plants which have capacity sizes ranging from 20 million gallons to 110 million gallons. Our Renewable Fuels Group closely monitors ethanol margins for customers through an Integrated Risk Management Program (IRMP) specifically tailored to their needs.
