KDA Supports Announcement on E15 Fuel

Secretary of Agriculture Jackie McClaskey today expressed her approval for the action taken to support year-round sales of E15 fuel. “Today’s announcement that the White House has waived the regulation that restricted sales of E15 is great news for Kansas and for Kansas farmers. We have advocated for years to allow year-round sales of E15 fuel, which provides more fuel choice to consumers and is progress for corn and ethanol producers. We are pleased to see the administration take this action to support rural economies. This decision is one step in the right direction toward a solid U.S. ethanol policy.”
