Industry Summary of 2013

It was great to see the biodiesel market come back in a big way in 2013. In addition, biodiesel

plants were also making use of corn oil and other feedstocks in the production of their biodiesel

products. At this moment, the biodiesel industry is voicing concerns with the EPA regarding the

latest RFA Draft which includes reducing biodiesel production to 1.28 billion gallons down from

2.0 billion gallons. Source: http://biodiesel.org/
