Bulls Grazing in the Corn Field

JDL51
From a chemical viewpoint, is it possible to decrease the quantity of corn used for ethanol production by substituting a certain percentage of low quality feed crop, non feed crop, waste or paper mill byproduct in the process?

What would that (those) be the most promising alternative ?

Because most corn sources and ethanol plants are located in Midwest rural areas this second ingredient would need to be plentiful, nearby (transportation) and less affected by weather issues as they affect availability.

I have seen articles about using dairy and paper byproducts--( in Wisconsin) and orange waste (in Florida)

How would this would affect the quality of the wet/dry distillers grain .....a secondary source of revenue from ethanol production...?
