In Missouri, researchers from Donald Danforth Plant Science Center will lead a multi-institutional project to deepen the understanding of sorghum, a versatile bioenergy crop, and its response to environmental challenges. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Biological and Environmental Research (BER) program supports the three-year $2.5 million project for Genomics-Enabled Understanding and Advancing Knowledge on […]
In Missouri, a recent study commissioned by Clean Fuels Alliance America and Farmers Fueling the Future finds that California’s indirect land use change (ILUC) assumptions for U.S. soy-based biodiesel and renewable diesel are outdated lacking modern agricultural practices and current science. The analysis, Land Use Change Emissions Associated with Soybeans: Considerations for California’s LCFS, conducted […]

In Missouri, Green Plains Renewable Energy has sold 2025 45Z credits generated from several of their ethanol facilities and the negotiation of a term sheet for an additional tranche of 2025 45Z Credits. GPRE expects the sale and transactions contemplated in the term sheet to generate $40 million to $50 million in 2025 EBITDA. This […]
In Missouri, the multinational behind Tums has partnered with Pretium Packaging and LyondellBasell to create a biobased bottle for the antacid. At the recent Packaging Recycling Summit, the companies detailed how the material cuts the carbon footprint of the brand by about 70% and does not impact performance or appearance. The specific biobased material was […]
In Missouri, a new study led by researchers at the University of Missouri has uncovered how poplar trees can naturally adjust a key part of their wood chemistry based on changes in their environment. This discovery — the result of a collaboration with scientists at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the University of Georgia — […]
In Missouri, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) announced the findings of the Assessment of BQ-9000 Biodiesel Properties for 2024, the eighth in a series of annual reports documenting the quality of biodiesel from U.S. and Canadian producers participating in the industry’s voluntary BQ-9000® accreditation program. The report, developed in partnership with Clean Fuels Alliance […]
In Missouri, to meet the increasing global demand for biofuels, scientists at the University of Missouri are already modifying plant genes to boost the amount of plant oil being produced. That’s because inside the plant, a complex network of metabolic pathways turns sunlight, carbon dioxide (or atmospheric carbon), water and nutrients into vital compounds including […]
In Missouri, the Sustainable Advanced Biofuel Refiners (SABR) Coalition, a national biodiesel trade association made up of over 70 organizational members throughout the biodiesel value chain, applauds the biofuel provisions added to the Senate budget-reconciliation legislation known as the “big, beautiful bill.” Introduced on June 28, the Senate version of the tax bill includes provisions […]
In Missouri, the United States is the world’s largest producer and exporter of corn, and corn farmers are bolstering the U.S. economy and building strong communities, according to a new study released by the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA). Corn grower leaders say they could make an even bigger contribution to the U.S. economy through […]
