The president of Minnesota Farmers Union wants to see biofuels policy that accounts for farmers and the environment.

Gary Wertish says renewable fuels like ethanol should play a part in addressing climate change.

“There’s a lot of talk about carbon sequestration and the need to try to work up some type of a program. We’re certainly supportive of that, but it’s got to be a program that actually works for the farmer and actually does some benefits.”

He tells Brownfield the Renewable Fuel Standard needs to be implemented the way Congress intended.
