CHICAGO (Reuters) - The renewable fuel that Tyson Foods Inc. (TSN.N: Quote, Profile, Research) is developing from animal fat will be more useful than ethanol, Chief Executive Richard Bond said on Wednesday.

"(The fuel is) absolutely better than ethanol," Bond said in response to a question at the Reuters Food Summit in Chicago.

The largest U.S. meat company, which produces 2.3 billion pounds of fat a year as a byproduct of its operations, could potentially start production of the fuel by the end of the year, Bond said.

"We are pretty far along on some technological advances working with some other companies," he added.
