USDA Acting Deputy Secretary Michael Scuse is leading a U.S. ethanol mission to Mexico on May 24 and 25, 2016 to explore trade opportunities between the two countries.

The mission participants include representatives from the Renewable Fuels Association, Growth Energy and the U.S. Grains Council who will attend meetings with government officials, legislators and the Mexican private industry.

The mission members will share their experiences with both ethanol production and the development of renewable fuels policies, with the goal of demonstrating how Mexico can implement its own renewable fuels program.

Mexico would create a potential market for 790 million gallons of ethanol.

The United States is the world’s largest producer of ethanol and for several years now has been the low cost supplier as well, allowing us to dramatically increase our exports.
