Tennessee FFA Team Wins Second in State Competition for BioWillie Demonstration

A Portland, TN, Future Farmers of America team, in a state wide competition, won second place performing a skit about a current agriculture issue, showing the advantages of biodiesel over regular diesel. Using Willie Nelson’s BioWillie premium biodiesel, as sold at the Middle Tennessee Truck Plaza as their fuel, they demonstrated and debated use of this clean burning fuel.
 
“We are pleased that America’s next generation of consumers are educating themselves on the advantages of clean burning, renewable fuels such as biodiesel,” said Randy Hepler, senior vice president sales and operations of Earth Biofuels. “This encourages me that we are making progress in lessening our dependence on foreign energy while helping our future farmers. It’s a win-win for all.”
