MISSOURI CORN GROWERS ASSOCIATION
The Missouri Corn Growers Association (MCGA), established in 1978, is a grassroots organization of farmer-members dedicated to increasing the profitability of corn production by developing and expanding corn markets, collecting and distributing information, building coalitions with organizations and industries, and participating in the governmental process.
MISSOURI CORN MERCHANDISING COUNCIL
The Missouri Corn Merchandising Council (MCMC) was formed after a referendum was passed to establish a one-half cent per bushel corn checkoff. MCMC is an organization of corn growers dedicated to the profitability of corn production by investing checkoff dollars in the development and expansion of corn market; facilitating communication with growers and customers; and researching new corn utilization opportunities.
