The Trump administration is proposing oil refiners blend more biofuels into gasoline and diesel next year while seeking to discourage the use of imported supplies.

After losing their biggest export market, U.S. farmers are now counting on the president’s support for biofuels to prevent their next crop from piling up in storage.

Port of Stockton in California celebrated the debut of an expanded renewable fuels terminal that will facilitate the movement of biodiesel and renewable diesel from ships.

USDA will release nearly $260 million in new funds among a pot of $537 million in biofuel grants for 543 ethanol and biodiesel projects in 29 states.

A national trade coalition is urging Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin to set Renewable Fuel Standards for 2026 and later to bolster U.S. biofuel availability.

President Donald Trump’s nominee to oversee American farming was once head of a group that was among the loudest opponents of a favorite U.S. agriculture product: biofuels.

The move, a win for American farmers, comes after a flood of supplies from China reached U.S. shores at cheaper prices than soybean oil produced locally.

Soybean farmers in seven states are asking Congress to extend current biodiesel and renewable diesel tax credits due to a lack of clarity on a set of new rules ready to take effect in January.

More than 30 trade groups across the energy, farming and transport sectors say a lack of U.S. government guidance on tax credits is putting Americans at risk of higher fuel prices.

Agriculture giants including Cargill Inc. and Bunge Global SA are slowing their buying of soybeans because of uncertainty over U.S. biofuels policy.
