Driving the Farm Economy
The bioeconomy supports more than a half-million jobs in the U.S. With regulatory updates that allow for more biofuels to be blended into our fuel supply, it could support almost another 200,000 more.
Fuel is just one of the many things biorefineries produce that drives economic activity in rural communities.
Bioprocessing facilities also transform crops and crop byproducts into corn oil, high-protein animal feed, food-grade CO2, biopolymers, and other innovative, in-demand items.
