Corn subsidies provide animal ag with cheap feed. Cut the corn subsidies and prices for meat will better reflect the cost of producing it.

If lab grown meat produces far more CO2 than conventional and we cut corn subsidies I could see it backfiring and pushing more meat to be lab grown causing total CO2 to actually increase.

40 percent of U.S. corn is used for ethanol

36 percent of U.S. corn, plus distillers grains left over from ethanol production, is fed to cattle, pigs and chickens

Much of the rest is exported.

Only a tiny fraction of the national corn crop is directly used for food for Americans, much of that for high-fructose corn syrup.
