The decision by the Environmental Protection Agency today to allow year round use of E15 is a historic moment for agriculture. That’s according to POET Chairman and CEO Jeff Broin. He says EPA’s decision opens up a great deal of demand for ethanol.

He says it’s been a tough fight to get this approval but well worth the effort.

Broin says the biggest export growth last year was due to ethanol.

Broin thanked President Trump for following through with his promise to allow for year round sales of E15.
