How Strategic Partnerships Benefit Nebraska Corn Farmers

How Strategic Partnerships Benefit Nebraska Corn Farmers


The world is more interconnected than ever, and that’s especially true when it comes to corn farming and other forms of agriculture.

By joining together with like-minded individuals and associations, the Nebraska Corn Board can serve the state’s corn farmers through promotion, market development, research and education.

These strategic partnerships allow stakeholders from all aspects of the industry to pool their talents and resources to promote corn-based products on a global scale.

By driving market growth and increasing the value of corn, this provides Nebraska farmers with expanded market opportunities, higher prices, sustainability and increased profitability. Here’s a closer look at key partners and how they help the Nebraska Corn Board enhance opportunities for corn growers in Nebraska and around the United States.

WHO IS THE NATIONAL CORN GROWERS ASSOCIATION?

Created in 1957, the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) aims to protect and advance corn growers’ interests. It does that by focusing on increasing demand and strengthening the trust between customers and corn growers. It also seeks to enhance farmer productivity and sustainability.

The NCGA does this with the help of more than 40,000 dues-paying farmers and growers who fund corn checkoff programs in their states.

Why partnership with the National Corn Growers Association helps Nebraska farmers

The NCGA has affiliate organizations in corn-growing states around the country. In Nebraska, the affiliates are the Nebraska Corn Board and the Nebraska Corn Growers Association.

Partnering with NCGA is integral to furthering Nebraska Corn’s four core priorities:

  • Increase grassroots producer engagement in education, leadership development, advocacy, policy efforts and local communities.
  • Collaborate to grow sustainability and demand for corn in all forms.
  • Strengthen the reputation of corn as a trustworthy energy, food and feed ingredient.
  • Foster a culture of continuous coaching and professional development within the organizations to enhance skills and support program, career and leadership growth.
