Agricultural groups call for reforms in tax credit policies
By Farms.com
Four prominent U.S. agricultural organizations—the American Farm Bureau Federation, American Soybean Association, National Corn Growers Association, and National Farmers Union—have united in a plea to the U.S. government. They are pushing for critical adjustments to the Clean Fuel Production Credit, known as 45Z, and the sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) credit.
Their joint letter to the Treasury and Budget office's outlines significant barriers that current policies pose to farmers. They highlight that without a domestic feedstock requirement, the clean fuel production tax credit disproportionately benefits foreign feedstock producers, bypassing American farmers and potentially distorting market dynamics.
