Attached is an audio report featuring comments from Renewable Fuels Association President Bob Dinneen on a number of topics coinciding with the annual RFA board of directors meeting in St. Louis this week. He talks about the angst felt by ethanol producers seeing their product maligned in the media and why the Texas governor’s request for a waiver of the Renewable Fuels Standard is misguided. Dinneen also says the industry can support a decrease in the blender’s tax credit being discussed by farm bill negotiators and he points out that transportation costs are driving the food aid crisis.
