Biodiesel prices?
I just got a corporate account to purchase biodiesel locally. It's $2.18 a gallon for what I believe is B20. Pump diesel is 1.99 at the same truck stop.
What are some prices/blends where you are? Just curious.

'05 Biodiesel tax break
The supplier here said that after the first of the year the tax break they receive as a biodiesel provider will allow them to drop their price to the same as or lower than regular diesel. The advantages will then be more than just renewable fuel and pleasant smelling exhaust.

I think B20 is 2.25 at Bartkus in Boulder. My B100 costs me the same $'s, but I trade mech work for it so no out of pocket for me as far as cash.
$0.19 above petro diesel isn't bad for B20, but it should (theoretically) be LESS than pump diesel. Hopefully when prod gets ramped for BD from oilseed stock, the price will be less than diesel (and have GADS more benefits.) People are thinking the soybean rust problem (fungus) might cause a spike in BD prices, but that's just because we are currently making most of the virgin based BD from soy (one of the worst for yield and not great for CFPP.)
