NEW USES INNOVATION

Tomorrow’s corn future begins today

Indiana’s corn farmers are utilizing technologies today, more than ever, to increase yields and produce more corn per acre than ever before. The Indiana corn checkoff is an investment in this future. The Indiana Corn Marketing Council (ICMC) grows your corn checkoff by capitalizing on emerging markets, creating new ones and finding innovative new uses for corn.

What’s the benefit? The corn checkoff supports research that has led to the development of new uses for corn, such as cornstarch plastics, improved ethanol, high-fructose corn syrup, bio-based chemicals and many other products. Future research will be a catalyst for growth in corn markets while increasing the viability of existing markets.
