Bunge Elevator in Louisiana One of First Exporters to Receive Certification Under the SSAP-RED
ST. LOUIS – By 2020, EU Member States are required to fulfill at least 20 percent of their total energy needs with renewable sources, with at least 10 percent attributed directly to transport fuels. Farmers in Louisiana, among several other states across the U.S., can participate in the SSAP-RED voluntary program. Farmers who are interested must deliver their soybeans to a certified elevator and sign a “Self-Declaration” that attests to their compliance with the requirements of the RED as well as the application of Good Agricultural Practices.
