In this
podcast, Kelly Brunkhorst, executive director for the
Nebraska Corn Board, shares information about the 2014 corn crop and the challenges ahead. This year's American corn crop will be the largest on record—with a projected 14.4 billion bushels. Growing more corn means we need to grow demand. The good news is that we have a number of markets for our corn—both domestically and abroad—in
exports,
livestock and
ethanol production that are key to the success and profitability of Nebraska corn farmers. Nevertheless, threats to these industries, especially those to
renewable fuels and
foreign trade, could pose many challenges for corn farmers moving forward.
