The Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) is adopting as final the proposed rule published July 27, 2000, in the Federal Register to accelerate the development and use of bio-based technologies in stimulating the industrial use of agricultural commodities into bio- based fuels and products. CCC will make incentive cash payments to bioenergy producers who increase their purchases of eligible agricultural commodities, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior fiscal year (FY), and convert that commodity into increased bioenergy production.
