With the growing season well underway, the U.S. Grains Council (USGC) needs farmer and state organization posts about local corn crops on its overseas-targeted Facebook page Growing the 2016 U.S. Corn Crop.

This page is a direct channel for communication between farmers and overseas customers about the condition and quality of the 2016 U.S. corn crop.

It was created in 2015 and has been a hit among international customers, farmers and others interested in U.S. corn production, attracting nearly 10,000 likes.

The Council expects the page to continue to grow this year as global buyers closely follow the U.S. crop season – and needs help from U.S. corn farmers who have updates about their crops that they’d like to share with their global customers.

Growers are encouraged to post photos, videos and commentary at their discretion on the page or be in touch with USGC staff directly at grains@grains.org with submissions.
