(NAFB.com) – Corn grower leaders are emphasizing the benefits of recent federal tax reforms as producers mark the first Tax Day on April 15th since the Working Families Tax Cuts law was enacted in July 2025. The National Corn Growers Association says several provisions in the legislation provide long-term certainty for farmers navigating a difficult economic environment. Ohio farmer and NCGA President Jed Bower said the changes will help producers plan ahead with greater confidence. “The certainty that comes with these tax provisions is extremely helpful as we navigate some really tough economic times,” he said. The law permanently extends key measures, including the qualified business income deduction, 100 percent bonus depreciation, and a higher estate tax exemption. It also continues the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Credit, which supports biofuels used in sustainable aviation fuel. Industry leaders say the policy stability allows them to focus on expanding demand for corn through year-round E15 and biobased product incentives.
