NFU Supports EPA Grain Sorghum Finding

National Farmers Union has submitted comments to the Environmental Protection Agency on the Notice of Data Availability Concerning Renewable Fuels Produced from Grain Sorghum under the Renewable Fuel Standard Program. NFU President Roger Johnson says U.S. farmers can have a tremendous positive impact on the environment by producing advanced biofuel from grain sorghum. He notes EPA’s analysis indicates utilizing different process energy technology options reduces lifecycle greenhouse gas impacts of ethanol produced from grain sorghum by 53-percent compared to the petroleum baseline. Based on NFU’s review of the Notice of Data Availability – Johnson says NFU supports EPA’s findings that grain sorghum qualifies as an advanced biofuel.
