The U.S. Department of Agriculture this week released the American Biofuels Trade Outlook, a plan that builds upon 2025’s record U.S. ethanol export performance, removes restrictions to American biofuels, and secures new market opportunities for U.S. farmers.

“American farmers are fueling the future, and the American Biofuel Trade Outlook outlines the USDA’s exact plan to ensure that success continues, and America’s producers continue to prosper,” said Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins.

The outlook includes four points – increase on-road ethanol blending, reduce restrictions on crop-based biofuels, reach untapped markets, and accelerate opportunities with international organizations.

Specific actions USDA intends to accelerate include addressing implementation challenges in markets like Vietnam, and working with the 20 countries at E10 to fully implement their blending polices; increase technical engagement to help encourage Mexico to adopt increased ethanol blending to expand U.S. ethanol exports; invest in research, outreach, technical work to maximize international market opportunities; and continue engagement at the U.N. International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and the U.N. International Maritime Organization (IMO) to supports the inclusion and competitiveness of U.S. biofuels so that other countries.
