Farm to Fly Act of 2025

The Farm to Fly Act of 2025 amends agricultural programs to include sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) as a qualifying biofuel, directly affecting U.S. farmers, agricultural producers, and the aviation industry by creating new market opportunities. It defines SAF with specific requirements - meeting ASTM standards, not derived from palm oil or petroleum, and achieving at least a 50% lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions reduction compared to jet fuel. The bill mandates the Secretary of Agriculture to lead a new collaboration initiative focusing on advancing SAF development through partnerships with farmers, rural economic support, and public-private partnerships. Additionally, it expands existing manufacturing assistance programs to include SAF production, aiming to strengthen domestic energy security and grow markets for agricultural feedstocks.
