Description

This book focuses on those policies contained in the 2014 farm bill that support agriculture-based renewable energy, especially biofuels.

The introductory sections of this book briefly describe how USDA bioenergy policies evolved and how they fit into the larger context of U.S. biofuels policy. Then, each of the bioenergy provisions of the 2014 farm bill are defined in terms of their function, goals, administration, funding, and implementation status.

The book describes agriculture-based biofuels and the evolution of the U.S. biofuels sector with a focus on the role that federal policy has played in shaping its development.

It highlights emerging issues that are critical to the biofuels sector and of relevance to Congress.

Furthermore, this book provides a description of the Biomass Crop Assistance Program's main components-annual and establishment payments, matching payments, and project areas-as outlined in USDA's final rule, along with a discussion of program funding and implementation issues.
