Similar to the #ethanol industry itself, @JohnDeere is constantly innovating its business to fit the ever-changing needs of our communities. As stated, this #renewablefuel is readily available in many parts of the world, and therefore a great answer! #FactualFriday #EthanolFTW

John Deere will have a concept 9.0L engine that is compatible with #ethanol on display at this year’s @AGRITECHNICA show. Millions of companies have come and gone over the past 150 years, but JD has survived by constantly innovating. https://t.co/GtxC31bcKq

The science has already proven - time and time again - that #ethanol "is 40-50 percent less carbon intensive than petroleum on a full lifecycle basis - including emissions from hypothetical land use change scenarios." #FactualFriday #EthanolFTW https://t.co/CL4zk0tOa2

Does #ethanol reduce other harmful emissions besides GHGs? You bet! Ethanol-blended fuels reduce carbon monoxide, exhaust hydrocarbons, air toxics like benzene (which can cause cancer!), and fine particulate matter. #FactualFriday #TheMoreYouKnow https://t.co/4bGJxlPWSK

So why is #ethanol important, you may ask? - Directly provided more than 78,800 U.S. jobs in 2022. - Indirectly provided an additional 342,800 jobs in 2022. - Created $34.8 billion in household income. - Contributed over $57 billion to the nation’s GDP. #FactualFriday #EthanolFTW

The #ethanol industry loves military #veterans! Want proof? How about the fact that we lead the way in hiring them? Thanks to all American heroes that help us produce an American-made product that benefits all Americans (and the world)! #ThoughtfulThursday https://t.co/GwOnZtLGhR
