Leaders with the Ohio Soybean Association believe the state is well-positioned for significant biofuel industry expansion by 2026, which could create new market opportunities for soybean producers. Bennett Musselman, who serves as the association’s president and farms in Pickaway County, points to new infrastructure development and growing market demand as key factors driving the potential growth.
“With some of the new crush plants that are coming online, we will have the ability” to capitalize on these emerging opportunities, Musselman explained. The anticipated expansion represents a promising development for Ohio’s agricultural sector as farmers look for ways to strengthen commodity markets.
