Fuels power our agriculture system, keeping tractors running and trucks moving to get food from farms to tables across this country. ​ And that connection goes both ways. Crops like Canadian canola, corn, and wheat are important feedstock for biofuels helping produce lower-carbon fuels for the future. ​ It’s a made-in-Canada partnership — two essential sectors working together to keep our country moving, growing and strong.
