Farmers work tirelessly, day in and day out, to keep our nation fed and keep industries running. Today, we show our deepest appreciation for their hard work and stewardship.

Wishing all the farmers a bountiful harvest this year.

[Corn Refiners @CornRefiners]

This month, American farmers are working night and day to harvest this year's crop. We know how tirelessly they work to keep American agriculture functioning, and we appreciate it.

Thank you to America's farmers.

American manufacturing and American agriculture go hand in hand.

On Manufacturing Day, we're celebrating the manufacturers who turn U.S.-grown corn into the ingredients and products Americans rely on every day.

Our industry wouldn't function without manufacturers, and we're proud to support them.

[Corn Refiners @CornRefiners]

Certainty matters for American growers. Access to markets can provide that certainty, and that's why trade pacts like USMCA are a benefit to American farmers.

A strong North American trading relationship means a stronger American agricultural economy.

Congratulations to NCGA leader Jed Bower on a great year as president!

[National Corn (NCGA) @NationalCorn]

Serving as president of the National Corn Growers Association is a calling, and it's one Jed Bower answered without hesitation. As his term as president comes to a close and he steps into the role of Corn Board chairman, we want to recognize everything he has given to corn growers over the past year.

Jed spent this year as a volunteer, and he gave it his all. He traveled the country, often far from his farm, his friends, and his family, to make sure corn growers had a strong voice wherever it mattered. Whenever farmers across the Corn Belt needed him, whether it was a late-night call, a last-minute trip, or a tough conversation, Jed showed up.

Back home in Washington Court House, Ohio, Jed raises corn and soybeans on a fifth-generation family farm with his wife, Emily, and their children, Ethan and Emma. That deep connection to the land has guided every decision he's made on behalf of the farmers we represent.

Jed, thank you for your steady leadership, your generosity with your time, and your passion for this work. To Emily, Ethan, and Emma, thank you for sharing him with farmers everywhere. We're so glad Jed's leadership will continue as chairman, and we can't wait to see what comes next.

The start of Fall means harvest season is upon us.

We hope farmers across the country have a safe and bountiful harvest and many beautiful sunsets over their fields.

Important look at the cost pressure facing American farmers. Policy certainty and strong markets are critical to the future of agriculture and the economic health of rural America.

[American Farm Bureau @FarmBureau]

The overall cost of operating a farm has risen sharply since the 2018 #farmbill was enacted. Total U.S. farm production expenses increased from approximately $343 billion in 2018 to a projected $492.8 billion in 2026—that's an increase of nearly 44%, or about $150 billion.
