LCFS Testimony
Others testified before the House Ag committee hearing on the Low Carbon Fuel Standard. Ray Gaesser, a soybean producer from Corning, Iowa and vice president of the American Soybean Association told the panel - EPA's assumptions do not adequately consider other market factors such as population growth, food and feed demand, and timber prices that have historically driven international land use decisions. As for the requirement that renewable fuel manufacturers prove that their feedstocks meet the definition of renewable biomass, the ASA leader pointed out - the EPA proposed rule would limit eligibility to biofuels produced only from feedstocks grown on existing cropland. This requirement could result in the need to provide feedstock certification. Such certification, he said, - would be onerous and unworkable.
