Welcome to the new Missouri Corn Online!

Agriculture is the number one industry in Missouri, contributing billions of dollars to the state’s economy each year. And corn is a major contributor, providing food, feed, fiber and fuel.

corn-harvest_field.gifFrom 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.

In order to best serve and represent our growers, we’ve updated the logo, look and website of Missouri Corn. You’ll also find that our site has been reorganized and refreshed. Please take a moment to check out our new features, such as our focus on market development, an expanded newsroom for members of the media and a poll for our growers.
