The company operates through several business segments, including:

  3. Food and Ingredients: Green Plains operates a cattle-feeding operation, which utilizes the distillers grains produced as a byproduct of ethanol production as a high-protein animal feed. The company also produces corn oil, which is used as a feed ingredient and in various industrial applications.
  4. Partnership: Green Plains Partners LP is a master limited partnership (MLP) formed by Green Plains Inc. to own, operate, develop, and acquire ethanol and fuel storage facilities, terminals, transportation assets, and other related assets and businesses.
