Research Delivers!

Corn growers in 22 states throughout the country have the opportunity to invest a small portion from the sale of every bushel of corn into checkoff funding for investment into research and development to increase demand and add value to the U.S. corn crop. Grower-led checkoff boards invest funds individually and at the state level and collectively through NCGA to further research efforts into value added technology and business development. NCGA corn research programs are focused on three main areas to fully leverage available funding to create processes that expand the potential of corn usage and develop profit opportunities for U.S. corn growers.

Read NCGA’s position on research and commercialization. The three main areas of NCGA research focus on Ethanol & Related Issues, New Uses, and Value Added Development. Please click on the category links to go to the project fact sheets for the research portfolio.
