The 2007 Pennsylvania Farm Show (January 6-13) in Harrisburg will feature Pennsylvania’s advances in agricultural renewable energy in a special Energy Harvest Exhibit again this year.

More than 40 exhibits will show how renewable energy can be harnessed in every county across Pennsylvania from resources like crops, trees, wind, the sun and water. Renewable energy in the form of biofuels can also be used in the transportation sector to reduce our dependence on foreign oil.

Gov. Rendell recently launched the PennSecurity Fuels initiative, ensuring that after 10 years Pennsylvania will generate 900 million gallons annually of domestically-produced fuel for the state’s gasoline and diesel supplies.

As part of that initiative, the Governor also created the Pennsylvania Agricultural Renewable Energy Council. By building an agricultural renewable energy industry, the state will open new markets to farmers, securing agriculture’s position as the top industry in the state.
