  I called the Farm Bureau  on this and suggested they Contact the Ohio Farmer Magazine to try and get a editorial in that magazine. I also called the Ohio Farmer Mag and got a voice mail where I let my concerns.

why would any farmer want to hear what the EPA has to say.  Sounds to

me like the Ohio Farmer Magazine is slinging some crapppp.  No evidence has ever been proven that it would effect the farms water.  Maybe their afraid the poor cows will fall in the fracking hold.

there is lots of info on the value of the wet gas. looks to me like it is near 7-8 dollars compared to 2.45 for dry.

The NGL natural gas liquids are that they are a separate product. If NG prices soared it would effect both oil and LNG prices just because something happened big time to drive the prices up.

Most of the value from what I have seen in the NGL  is for their use in plastics which I would say would be pretty stable. Of course any large meltdown of a global nature could screw anything up!
