Once again, Minnesota Corn will offer plenty to Expo attendees, from networking opportunities to grassroots policy discussions and more. Here is what you can expect from Minnesota Corn during the event.

Highlighting advocacy, research efforts

At the Minnesota Corn booth (#68-71), MCGA grower-leaders and staff will highlight how the organization is advocating for growers in St. Paul and Washington, D.C. Advocacy helps ensure corn farmers can access the tools necessary to raise a healthy crop, and MCGA looks forward to showcasing its multifaceted approach to the work. Additionally, Minnesota Corn will have staff on hand to highlight how the organization develops developing markets for corn, ethanol, and ethanol co-products through partnerships, biofuel promotion campaigns, and new uses projects.

In addition to spotlighting advocacy and market development efforts, Minnesota Corn will feature research supported by corn farmers through the Minnesota corn check-off. Stop by the researcher area adjacent to the Minnesota Corn booth to meet university scientists leading check-off-supported projects and researchers who conduct on-farm projects that explore and build on farming best practices.
