On January 26th, Loan Officer Chuck Custeau from our St. Albans office presented a project to UVM students enrolled in a Biomass to Biofuels course. The presentation titled COST ANALYSIS OF OILSEED CROP PRODUCTION FOR BIODIESEL was based on a project that he and partner Meghan Seifert completed last year. They completed a feasibility study for a Vermont dairy producer to grow and produce their own biofuels for use on the farm. Professor Anju Dahiya asked the two of them to return this year to present their project for this year’s class.
Yankee sponsored Chuck taking this class last year for him to learn more about biofuels and to demonstrate Yankee’s commitment to financing alternative crops. Chuck did very well in the class. Thanks for representing us Chuck!
