Farm Power, a business in Rockford, Washington, was awarded a U.S. Department of Agriculture $90,000 grant. Senators Maria Cantwell (D-WA) and Patty Murray (D-WA) applauded the department's decision to help the Eastern Washington business.
Farm Power will develop a biofuel production process that will enable farmers to produce and sell biofuel. Farm Power, located in Spokane County, will use the funds to develop an automated control system and automated feedstock delivery system for producing biofuel from Kentucky bluegrass straw.
Once commercialized, the technology will create jobs, provide an additional source of revenue for farmers, and increase domestic fuel production from recycled agricultural waste.
