Sure, grass is probably better. But it's also more expensive, and the same land yields far more feed in corn than it does in grass. In a perfect world, we'd still be raising cattle in large, lush fields of grass. That's not reality. Anything that raises the price of feed, raises the price of food. ALL food, not just beef. If you use farm product to make oil, you raise the price of food. Period.
