U.S. Senators Jerry Moran (R-Kan.), Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) and Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) introduced legislation on January 22 that would help accelerate the production and development of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Known as “The Farm to Fly Act,” the legislation seeks to utilize current USDA programs to support the development of SAF, clarify federal definitions for SAF and enable greater collaboration between USDA and the private sector.
