Summary:

A key issue facing Congress is the appropriate level and type of federal intervention in renewable energy markets in general, and the biofuels sector in particular. While the expansion of agriculture-based biofuels (particularly corn-based ethanol) has arguably achieved some success in increasing grain and oilseed demand, stimulating rural economies, and raising farm incomes,there has also been considerable spillover effect in other markets-most notably in land, energy,livestock, and farm input markets. This policy debate routinely confronts Congress because everyyear several of the federal policy provisions that support the U.S. biofuels industry, for example,certain tax credits or the import tariff, are set to expire pending congressional action to extend them.
