Iowa Biodiesel Board


The Iowa Biodiesel Board represents the biodiesel industry in Iowa, from the farmers who grow the feedstock, to production, through distribution to end users.

Iowa is the nation's leading state in biodiesel production.  As a heartland state, many of the state’s plants use soybean oil – an abundant local resource – to make biodiesel, but other renewable agricultural co-products and byproducts are also used, such as beef tallow, inedible corn oil and recycled cooking grease.
