King Corn (Documentary)

Tonight PBS’s Independent Lenses program aired an excellent documentary on the Corn Industry in the United States, specifically the commodity corn that goes into the production of ethanol, cattle feed, and high fructose corn syrup. As somebody that previously had only a vague idea of the process I highly recommend taking a look at this movie. At times it is even quite goofy (funny), if you like subtle and deadpan humor. It also points out some of the absurdities that exist in our subsidy style agriculture.
