Nebraska Corn Board

A delegation from Gruma, the world's largest tortilla manufacturer, recently visited Nebraska to learn more about Nebraska's white corn and sustainable agricultural practices. They were joined by representatives from Azteca and the National Chamber of Industrialized Corn, including key corn purchasers. The delegation sought to understand the advantages of genetically modified corn. During their visit, they engaged with local farmers to explore sustainable practices aimed at reducing carbon footprints, optimizing water usage and enhancing soil health. They met with a cooperative, a soil health scientist, the Natural Resources District and a white corn farmer. Trade teams like this are crucial in showcasing Nebraska's corn and its advantages to global buyers. By sharing our knowledge, we can strengthen trade relationships, increase exports and support our local farmers.
