On Wednesday, Minnesota Corn grower-leaders met with University of Minnesota researchers conducting studies funded through the Minnesota corn check-off.
During the event at Huntington Bank Stadium, grower-leaders talked with researchers about their work and learned about the latest in agricultural research. They also heard from Dr. Brian Buhr, dean of the College of Food, Agricultural and Natural Resource Sciences.
Each year, Minnesota Corn invests in research projects at the University of Minnesota and other institutions that aim to increase the productivity, profitability, and sustainability of corn production. This year, Minnesota Corn is investing over $2 million in nearly three dozen projects.
Minnesota Corn invests corn check-off funds in research as part of its mission to create opportunities for corn farmers and improve quality of life for all Minnesotans. Learn more about Minnesota Corn’s research investments by visiting our research webpage.
