Kansas Farm Bureau discussing new form of sustainable jet fuel
WICHITA, Kan. (KWCH) -The Kansas Farm Bureau is bringing farmers together to talk about a new form of sustainable jet fuel.
Senior Director of Advocacy of the Kansas Farm Bureau, Ryan Flickner says that it is a team effort between farmers and the aviation industry.
“We invited and encouraged Delta Airlines to come out here. Let’s have this dialogue what works for the airline works for farmers and ranchers here on the ground in Kansas and can we form a mutual alliance or can we better understand where each other’s group is coming from,” Flickner said.
Flickner says that even while in its early stages, the partnership is set to impact farmers who contribute in the form of tax credit.
“This renewable fuels drive and a sustainable aviation fuel, It’s so new and it’s in it’s infancy again we’re waiting for IRS rules and regulations… the ultimate shareholder goal to drive a more renewable or sustainable jet fuel source.”
