European Union: European Union to Phase Out the Use of Soy-based Biofuels
On April 10, 2026, the European Commission adopted a delegated regulation to update the methodology and data for high indirect land use change (ILUC) risk biofuels. The change in methodology and data will result in a gradual phase-out of the use of soybean as a feedstock for biofuels by 2030. The text now goes to Parliament and the Council for consideration. The United States exported soybeans valued at $2.2 billion to the European Union in 2025.
