#1 Sounds like BS to me.

Agave grows in hot dry areas with annual precip below 15"/yr. Unless the corn is irrigated, it won't produce except in very wet years.

#2 I prefer sugar-based ethonal as an option anyway, although that could put Rum at risk. I like rum far better than tequila. Can't win sometimes.
