Working with farmers in North Central IA, Crop Reporting District 2, to create and increase opportunities for corn growers. Join ICGA today to get involved!
Today, Iowa Corn team members Joni Erwin & Grant Menke paid a visit to Cartersville Elevator in Nora Springs to talk about biofuels, infrastructure, and trade!
Today, ICGA President and farmer from Vinton Lance Lillibridge testified to the EPA on the RFS & RVOs -
ICGA will continue to work with the Biden Administration and EPA to uphold the RFS and provide increased market access for clean-burning, more affordable, low carbon biofuel.๐ฝ
Did you know that ICGA requests the Harvest Weight Proclamation (HVP) each year from @IAGovernor? What does this mean to your farm?
For 1,000 acre IA ๐ฝFarmer:
212 truckloads without proclamation
187 truckloads WITH proclamation
= 25 fewer truckloads thanks to the HVP
This year we partnered with @LandusCoop on harvest meals at their Rake, Britt & Thompson locations. Over three days we delivered close to 400 meals across north Iowa. Great opportunity to show appreciation to our farmers during a busy time of the year! #harvest21
Partners from @NationalCorn, @USGC & @USMEF joined the Iowa Corn Grassroots Summit for an update on the programs from DC to Japan to Mexico and more!

We had a great time with the @iowa_corn trailer at @algona_of Party in the Park: Growing Community a few weeks ago! Even the Iowa Pork Ambassador joined us to talk about how corn is important to the pork industry. Big thanks to @ISUExtKossuth for inviting us to participate!
Our committee was proud to present a $500 donation to the North Iowa Fair tonight through the county fair grant program. They plan to use the funds to allow the @ClearLakeFFA to farm the land around the grounds in exchange for their help to renovate the little farm hands display!
