Fueling the Farm: Biodiesel Rebates Available for South Dakota Farmers

South Dakota farmers can receive a rebate for using biodiesel blends on the farm. This rebate program is offered to help South Dakota farmers give biodiesel a try and discover how using this fuel that you help produce can benefit your equipment, your environment, your bottom line, and the economy of South Dakota.

Program Details

• Receive a 50 cent per gallon rebate for B20 purchased or 25 cents per gallon for B10.
• Each participant may collect the rebate for a maximum of $750 per participant. Previous rebate program participants are eligible for one rebate per calendar year. If a rebate was already received in 2026 during the previous program (for fuel delivered 1/1/26 - 6/30/26), participants are eligible again beginning January 1, 2027 for fuel delivered in 2027.

Eligibility

• South Dakota farmers purchasing dyed diesel for on-farm use. Clear diesel is not eligible for the rebate.
• Purchases must be made between 7/1/2026 and 6/16/2027.
