US biodiesel imports rose sharply in April, offsetting low levels in March, according to data released on Friday June 28 by the US Energy Information Administration (EIA).

Average monthly biodiesel imports were at 51 million gallons for the first four months of 2024, well above the monthly average of 41.8 million gallons in January-April 2023.
