Saskatchewan Farmers face increased challenges with Clean Fuel Standards

The Saskatchewan Association of Rural Municipalities (SARM) believes the implementation of clean fuel standards on July 1 will impact farmers’ bottom line.

The new regulations will cover the entire life cycle of fuels, from production and transport to consumption.

In a statement, SARM said the farming community is grappling with challenges arising from the implementation of the standards.

SARM President Ray Orb said the requirements will lead to increased fuel prices.
