A top priority for both the Missouri Soybean Association and Missouri Corn Growers Association is seeing passage of the Missouri Made Fuels Act in the legislative session that began Wednesday.
Casey Wasser, with Missouri Soybean, says they are playing offense on the bill this year, “Like last year, we’re going to have Representative Haffner and Senator Hoskins leading the charge on the Missouri Made Fuels Act and we’re trying to build the biggest coalition we can to support their efforts.”
The bill, which would establish a minimum biodiesel fuel content mandate for diesel fuel sold or offered for sale in Missouri, got close but did not make it over the finish line last year, in part because COVID-19 disrupted the session early.
