Missed our TopSoil Webinar yesterday?
Had a great conversation with the ABGi team digging into the tax credit side of #45Z and how farm data, CI Scores, and verification all connect to the opportunity for farmers and biofuel producers.
Lots of moving pieces, but things are coming together!

Different farms, different stories, but we all share the same passion for agriculture! 🌽🚜
Proud to be a farmer and work alongside so many great farmers who are working hard to feed and fuel the world.
Happy National Farmers Day! #NationalFarmersDay
Had a cab full of Hora boys helping me harvest last night. 🌽 This low-CI corn will be able to earn a nice premium at our local ethanol plant driven by #45Z! 🇺🇸💵
There are a lot of moving pieces with #45Z, especially when you get into the actual tax credit side.
I’m excited to have Kris Huffman, Melissa Sanchez and Ken Shimomoto from ABGi join me for our next TopSoil Webinar to connect the dots from farm data and CI Scores all the way through the 45Z tax credit.
Lots to unpack and plenty of opportunity ahead!

I had a full cab of help running grain cart during #Harvest26. It was a great day for it and we had a lot of fun. This is what the #FamilyFarm is all about! 🇺🇸🌽
Got 3 generations of Horas out helping with #Harvest26 today! 152nd crop for the Horas in Iowa. Going well now that the rain has stopped. 🇺🇸🌽🙌
Always enjoy hosting farmers from around the world at the farm! 🇮🇹
Great conversations yesterday with a group of Italian farmers about #SoilHealth, #45Z and challenges we’re all facing like high fertilizer and diesel prices.
Missed our #45Z webinar yesterday?
Carolyn and I walked through what farmers need to know and what you should be doing NOW to prepare for 45Z.
CI Scores, farm data, documentation, CI Certification, TopSoil, and more.

At the @EthanolRFA meeting this week advocating for farmers and the contributions they can make to expand #45Z gains. Critical need to move swiftly to gather and verify 2025 crop data, 2026 crop data, and make Nutrient Budgets for your 2027 crop before applying fertilizer this fall!
Farmers, we’re going to walk through exactly what you need to be doing for 45Z.
Join Carolyn King and me Thursday at 11 AM CT. We’ll go through the process from start to finish and show you how we’re doing it in TopSoil.
Bring your questions!

45Z is a renewable fuels tax credit designed to promote lower carbon fuels. 🌱 ⛽
But its impact reaches far beyond the fuel tank.
45Z connects regenerative agriculture practices to ethanol production. The 45Z low carbon farming practices (like cover crops, reduced-till and improved nutrient management) are the same farming techniques used to improve Iowa’s water quality. 💧
As IRFA Executive Director Monte Shaw puts it, “Section 45Z will be the biggest clean-water program in the history of the United States government.”
One renewable fuels tax credit. Cleaner fuels and cleaner water.

Really good take on #45Z! We gone all in on the program because it’s by far the best opportunity I’ve seen to drive adoption of #SoilHealth practices at scale, with real 💵💵💵 Things are moving! Pay attention folks farmprogress.com/farm-policy…
Great to see CHS moving their #45Z strategy forward. Continuum is not currently handling their CI scoring and MRV, but if you sell to these locations, this is a good deal! If you want to know your CI Score, you can calculate it free at topsoil.ag 🇺🇸🌽
Farmers and ethanol plants can now collaborate to lower the plant’s CI Score and go after more #45Z tax credits! It is go time!

#45Z is here and it is happening in a big way. We still think that a book and claim accounting approach would improve the program, and remove a ton of uncertainty. Conversations are being had 😎 Here is a nice @agripulse article I helped on that talks about it agri-pulse.com/articles/2524…
Lots of #45Z conversations happening! Dale and I hit the road last week to meet with ethanol plants about what’s next.
Plants are making moves. Farmers need to be ready too. Talk to your ethanol plant and get your CI Score so you know where you stand.
The opportunity is moving! 🌽

Very fun playing corn hole with @hinsonashley during this weekend’s tailgating festivities! Ashley is doing a nice job educating herself, listening, and working for farmers and Iowans in DC! 🇺🇸
