This extension of the diesel emsissions regulation is incredibly
important to livestock producers who own and operate a small number
of trucks to aid in the moving of their livestock especially sheep.
With this extension it will allow sufficient time to fully
depreciate existing trucks and allow for recapitialization of newer
units in a more timely manner. This extension also has a huge
benifit on a drought year where producers are moving more livestock
based on limited forage and trying to retain as many producing
females as possible. With the drought in mind and many producers
having to sell off large percentages of their cow herds, it would
be incredibly hard to reinvest in a truck when they will have to
reinvest in their herds.
