CoBank says uncertainty around US biofuel policy, including RVOs, small refinery exemptions and the 45Z credit, is clouding the outlook. The report says soybean oil may be the winner of the proposed 2026-2027 RVO change, and that without SRE grants the market could be short nearly 2 billion RINs if RIN generation does not pick up.
Expected soybean oil share of the feedstock pool supports soybean oil prices, while policy uncertainty around RINs and exemptions adds volatility to the outlook.
