Currently, technically, no. Most of the corn fed to livestock is the remains left after distillation for alcohol.

- pengaru 5y ago[citation needed] Here's mine: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corn_production_in_the_United_States#Production https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corn_production_in_the_United_... 33% livestock feed, 27% ethanol, 11% "other" (which includes beverage alcohol according to the above link)
- mcguire 5y agoThat Wikipedia page is weird. The paragraph reports it as the corn production for 2019 but the link says it was retrieved in 2014. The current page has no numbers (but a video). A link to https://www.iowacorn.org/corn-production/production/ https://www.iowacorn.org/corn-production/production/ shows (for Iowa corn), 44% ethanol/fuel, 25% feed, 18% exports, 4% food and industrial. I was referring to another commenter's: https://extension.okstate.edu/fact-sheets/print-publications/afs/corn-as-cattle-feed-vs-human-food-afs-3296.pdf https://extension.okstate.edu/fact-sheets/print-publications... 2015, of course.
