As a leader of the US Department of Agriculture Tom Vilsack announced the decision-making process delays about the share of biofuel in the national fuel supply would not affect much the manufacturers.
Also the politician considers the biofuel market to be very promising. He pointed such facts as the last year record level of bioethanol production in US, highly developed level of export, aviation and military markets and grown interest towards the brand-new biofuel plants construction. Besides Mr Vilsack mentioned the state of Iowa where he used to be a governor. Nowadays Iowa is a national leader of bioethanol and biodiesel production along with new technologies implementation for using corn and corn cobs as raw materials. These technologies will make bioethanol more environment-friendly.
