This week's Open Mic guest is Neil Caskey, CEO of the National Corn Growers Association. Caskey says last week's Make America Healthy Again report overshadowed the news of updates to the nation's farm programs and tax policy in the House of Representatives. Caskey is anxious to see the EPA's pending RVO announcement under the Renewable Fuel Standard and hopes Congress can finally approve year-round E-15 legislation. He says the nation's corn growers are willing to give President Trump's trade policy time to play out, but they hope the exercise leads to increased market access.…

This week's Open Mic guest is Chandler Goule, CEO of the National Association of Wheat Growers. The budget reconciliation debate introduced much needed changes to farm programs that many agriculture groups have hoped for, but Goule says there are many needed provisions that were orphaned in the reconciliation process and need to be addressed.

This week’s Open Mic guest is Adam Bergman, Managing Director at EchoTech Capital. While opinions still widely vary regarding what sustainability really means, Bergman stands in the gap between would be investors and those willing to adopt certain sustainable practices. In agriculture the topics include regenerative farming, a vast array of climate smart practices and even indoor farming. Washington has proven that financial support for renewable fuels as well as electricity from solar and wind sources can influence growth.

Much attention is given to the potential demand for billions of bushels of row crops should they be included as acceptable feedstocks for sustainable aviation fuel. Drawing from his long career with the National Corn Growers Association and the ethanol industry, Bertles says the SAF market won’t be as easy to develop as the process involves creating molecules of actual jet fuel instead of simply blending the product. Favorable regulations, incentives, subsidies and carbon sequestration will all have to be accomplished in order to open this new opportunity for farmers and the ag industry.…

Kelly says packaging is essential to limit food waste and maintain fresh produce quality for consumers across the country and around the globe. But just as health experts encourage higher consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables, several states and countries are considering various restrictions on food packaging and waste disposal that would be very challenging for growers, shippers and packers to meet.

The group represents all aspects of the advanced biofuels in the nation from large refiners to major feedstock providers and new technology groups. McAdams believes government statutes for advanced biofuels are not working with taxpayer incentives to grow the industry. While the nation transitions to new leadership in Washington, a delay in the release of new regulations has the industry operating in a cloud of confusion.

With over 45 years of experience in the global grain market, Basse has seen cyclical swings in commodity prices and farm income many times before. Unlike years gone by, the United States farmer is no longer the primary supplier of grains to the international market and is politically and financially being squeezed out of what were once promising markets. Basse says price is no longer the primary driver of export sales and future administrations may be forced to use strong trade policy to open doors for farmers. Basse says the renewable fuels industry as well as airlines need regulatory certainty to secure their share of a promising demand base for their crops.…
