WORLD OF CORN 2019

A Letter from NCGA

In 2018, America’s corn farmers demonstrated again how the world of

opportunities corn farmers create truly does a world of good. Using practices

that care for the land, air and water, corn farmers grew another record-setting

crop that will feed and fuel a healthy, growing world. This crop continues to offer

innovative solutions that help us all care for our world with the same passion as the

farm families who view it as their legacy. As the World of Corn continues to grow,

we invite you to take a moment to learn more about how amazing maize can be.

Corn starch is preferred in many commercial food applications

due to its translucent nature versus flour which is opaque.

Corn starch can be used to create polylactic acid polymers. These

can be processed into sustainable versions of fibers and plastics.

Corn syrup is used as a sweetener, thickening agent

and as a humectant, a water-absorbing ingredient helping

food retain freshness.

Only the starch is used to make ethanol. The remaining nutrients, protein, fiber and oil, known as Dried Distillers Grains with Solubles are used as feed.

*In dry-grind ethanol process.**In wet-mill ethanol process.Gluten feed is 20 percent protein and gluten meal is 60 percent protein.
