Recker, VP of New Holland Agricultural Business in North America.

"This is what we have been working toward for years: a major equipment manufacturer announcing full support for the use of high quality B20 in all of their equipment that has New Holland engines," said Nat'l Biodiesel Board CEO Joe Jobe.

This powerful stand for renewable energy is helping lead us toward a safer, less dependent nation."
