You grow soybeans. Your soybean checkoff helped develop soy-based biodiesel. Government and industry studies show it’s good for your engines, the environment, and U.S. farmers. Farmers are the, second-largest consumers of diesel fuel in the U.S. So when you request biodiesel, fuel suppliers will listen. Ask your fuel supplier to carry B 2 - a two-percent blend of pure, ASTM D-6751 quality soy-based biodiesel. It’s available throughout the United States, so why not ask for it and use it? Using B 2 on your farm supports the industry’s growth, by increasing the number of suppliers for high-quality biodiesel fuel. And, a B 2 blend provides increased lubricity for your engines, a boost in cetane, and reduced dependence on foreign oil Studies show that if every farmer used 82, we could utilize more than 50 million bushels of soybeans per year - the combined 2001 annual soybean harvests of Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. Imagine the potential. Delaware, Maryland & Pennsylvania Biodiesel Sources Call ahead to ensure availability and biodiesel blends offered. This list has been compiled by the soybean checkoff boards to help promote biodiesel use in the Mid-Atlantic. If your biodiesel supplier is not listed, have them call us at (571) 333-0108 For more information about clean-burning, ASTM D-6751 quality biodiesel, including suppliers in Virginia & other states, visit: www.biodiesel.org /**j.l i ' * i * VEALS: Good to Choice SO.OO-90.00, Med. to Good 50.00-67.00. 808 CALVES: 30.00 and down.
