(Minnesota Bio-Fuels Association) The Minnesota Bio-Fuels Association (MN Bio-Fuels) today celebrates 10 years of representing Minnesota’s ethanol industry.
“We are very happy to reach an important milestone in celebrating our 10-Year anniversary as an organization in Minnesota. MN Bio-Fuels was formed to represent Minnesota’s ethanol and other renewable fuel producers. We have and will continue to represent the industry at the local, state and federal level,” said Brian Kletscher, board president of MN Bio-Fuels.
He said MN Bio-Fuels was formed in 2011 to represent Minnesota’s ethanol industry at the state legislature and to regulatory bodies, as well as increase ethanol consumption in the state through promotional and educational efforts.
The biennial event is co-sponsored by the US Grains Council (USGC), the Renewable Fuels Association (RFA) and Growth Energy and they are planning to host the event next year Oct. 12-14, 2022, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, US.
“COVID dictated we cancel Export Exchange in 2020, and sadly, we have officially canceled it once again for 2021,” event organizers said. “However, we are excited to offer Export Exchange in 2022. This premier event allows overseas attendees the opportunity to build relationships with US suppliers of distiller’s dried grains with solubles (DDGS), corn, sorghum, barley and other commodities, resulting in hundreds of millions of dollars in grain sales. We look forward to addressing issues facing US exports, including market dynamics, trade policy, risk management and other timely topics as we educate global buyers and build awareness of US grains and co-products.”
