Welcome to Missouri Corn Online!

From ethanol to exports—livestock feeding to bio-based plastics—the Missouri Corn Growers Association and the Missouri Corn Merchandising Council develop and support projects designed to increase the demand for Missouri corn—and to enhance the profitability of Missouri corn growers.


 

FARMERS SHOW THEIR GREEN SIDE



Corn growers are working hard every day to meet the needs of a growing world and doing it with the environment in mind.  To help share this message, the National Corn Growers Association produced a video on the increasing sustainability of agriculture.  The video features family farmers telling the story of how better management and modern technology spells good news for both consumers and the environment.
