The President of the Nebraska Farm Bureau, Mark McHargue, is calling for more guidance on sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) production. He believes there is still uncertainty surrounding the future of SAF and is seeking clarity on what farming practices could qualify for tax incentives. Nebraska, as the nation’s second largest producer of ethanol, is well positioned to lead in SAF production. McHargue highlights the importance of utilizing tools such as carbon pipelines to capture CO2 and convert ethanol or corn stover into sustainable aviation fuel. While some updated guidance was released by the US Treasury and USDA in January, the Trump administration has yet to release official rules related to SAF production. McHargue emphasizes the need for a diverse set of tools to achieve an agreeable carbon intensity score. The Nebraska Farm Bureau continues to advocate for more support and guidance in the development of SAF.
