Corn growers are welcoming EPA’s decision to deny 54 so-called gap year Small Refinery Exemptions under the Renewable Fuels Standard.
National Corn Growers Association President Kevin Ross of Minden, Iowa says, “It’s definitely good news though, at the end of the day. It’s a big win for us and to get these things done.
Ross tells Brownfield getting the fuel refiners to follow the Renewable Fuel Standard law is important because it means real corn demand and real dollars to farmers.
