This week, the U.S. Grains Council (USGC) in cooperation with CasaGrains, a major importer of corn and distiller\u2019s dried grains with solubles (DDGS) in Morocco, escorted a Moroccan team to see firsthand U.S. corn and DDGS production, quality and the proper use of these products in the U.S. layer rations.<\/p>\n<p>This marks th<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.grains.org\/sites\/default\/files\/Morocco.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" style=\"line-height: 20.0063037872314px; float: right;\"><span style=\"line-height: 1.538em;\">e third year that the Council has worked with CasaGrains to bring a team representing downstream Moroccan customers and layer operations to the United States. This year\u2019s 13-person group began its tour in Iowa, where the participants visited an ethanol plant, Iowa State University\u2019s Egg Industry Center, a U.S. corn producer and sectors of the U.S. layer industry.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Since most Moroccan layer farms are large operations, they buy feed ingredients such as corn and DDGS from CasaGrains to incorporate in their layer rations.
