Farm to Fuselage Act
The Farm to Fuselage Act supports the development of sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) by connecting U.S. farmers to the aviation industry. It creates premium payments for innovative SAF producers, expands funding for biorefinery construction, and updates crop insurance to cover biofuel crops like camelina and pennycress. The bill also directs the USDA to revise the Biomass Research Board and report on streamlining insurance for farmers growing these crops. These changes aim to boost domestic energy security, create new markets for farmers, and accelerate SAF commercialization.
