About the company
Dakota Ethanol LLC, a South Dakota-based for-profit limited liability company and biofuel manufacturer, operates as a federal grant recipient producing advanced biofuels and receiving financial assistance from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Rural Business Cooperative Services under the Biofuel Producer Program (CFDA 10.378).
The vendor's entire federal footprint consists of nine project grants awarded by USDA Rural Business Cooperative Services, all directed to Dakota Ethanol as a prime recipient with no subcontract or sub-recipient activity. The grants fall into two categories: COVID-19 relief payments to offset unexpected market losses in biofuel markets, and direct support for advanced biofuel production. Major awards include a $2.5 million COVID relief grant dated May 17, 2023 (ultimate completion May 17, 2025), a $2.46 million COVID relief award dated May 5, 2022 (ultimate completion May 5, 2024), and a $462,648.71 COVID relief award dated May 26, 2023 (ultimate completion May 26, 2025). Smaller grants ranging from $2,422 to $13,554 support advanced biofuel production work. Two grants awarded in January and April 2026 for advanced biofuel production carry completion dates of January 23, 2026 and February 18, 2025 respectively.
Activity is sparse and irregular: one award in 2021, two in 2022, two in 2023, one in 2024, and one in 2026, with combined obligated dollars of $5.5 million across all nine awards. Customer concentration is complete — all nine awards come from the single federal agency, USDA Rural Business Cooperative Services. The vendor does not hold seats on government-wide contract vehicles, IDIQs, BPAs, or GWACs; all activity is direct project grant work. No federal contract work, federal contract primes, or subcontractor engagement appears in the source data.
