In the Philippines, the U.S. Grains Council (USGC) and Mariano Marcos State University (MMSU) signed a memorandum of understanding to facilitate the exchange of expert knowledge, technical information, and best practices related to the biofuels industry and policy development.
The signing ceremony took place during the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Agribusiness Trade Mission to Manila. The U.S. Grains Council’s ethanol development program works with partners globally to expand the market for fuel and industrial use ethanol.
Located in Batac, Ilocos Norte, MMSU houses the NBERIC, a USAID-supported state-of-the-art hub for bioenergy research, training, extension, and technopreneurship.
