He says it wasn’t an easy decision - but Tom Buis is leaving National Farmers Union to serve as CEO of Growth Energy .In these tough economic times - Buis says it’s important to continue the nation’s support for the ethanol industry - especially as it comes closer and closer to the blend wall.
BIUS: The federal government can act and increase the amount of ethanol blended in the nation’s fuel supply without having to dip into stimulus dollars or coming up with bailout money. It just needs to approve a higher blend.
His successor will be chosen by Farmers Union delegates at the upcoming national convention March 8-10 in Washington, D.C. Buis says - representing America's family farmers, ranchers and rural citizens has been a privilege and an honor.
