The Louisiana legislature found that the proper development of an advanced biofuel industry requires implementation of the comprehensive “field-to-pump” strategy: (1) Feedstock other than corn; (2) Decentralized network of small advanced biofuel manufacturing facilities; (3) Variable blending pumps, in lieu of splash blending, will offer the consumer E10, E20, E30 and E85; and (4) Hydrous ethanol. "Field-to-Pump" is a unique strategy created by Renergie, Inc. to locally produce and market advanced biofuel (“non-corn ethanol”) via a network of small advanced biofuel manufacturing facilities. The purpose of “field-to-pump” is to maximize rural development and job creation while minimizing feedstock supply risk and the burden on local water supplies.
