Trade mission to Japan opens door to sustainable aviation fuel

Trade mission to Japan opens door to sustainable aviation fuel

The head of Nebraska Farm Bureau says the Governor’s recent trade mission to Japan could create new markets for sustainable aviation fuel.

Mark McHargue tells Brownfield he met with the leader of one of Japan’s airlines last week who is interested in tapping into Nebraska’s soybean market. “It’s hard to quantify what or if we end up doing sustainable aviation fuel.  It could completely turn our biofuels sector upside down.”

He says it could be a few years before exports begin due to lack of infrastructure in the state.
