The Corn Farmers Coalition is an alliance of family corn farmers from across the United States and represents tens of thousands of dues-paying farmers.

The coalition formed in 2008 to educate policy-makers in Washington about how tech-savvy, innovative farmers are growing more corn every year – for food, animal feed, ethanol and exports.

Innovation, efficiency, and productivity.  For America’s family farmers this is a reality born of commitment and necessity.  Today, farmers can plant up to 43 percent of the nation’s corn crop – an area bigger than New York State - in a single day, thanks to advances in machinery, management and technology. Growing, safe, abundant and affordable food in a sustainable way is a great American success story.

The Corn Farmers Coalition uses facts from government and academics to document how farmers are using fewer resources and protecting the environment while earning the title of  most productive  corn farmers in the world.

Thanks to these amazing innovations, the amount of corn we can grow on each acre will double again in only 25 years.

With new technologies, new seed varieties and precision-farming techniques we are also protecting the environment – reducing fertilizer, pesticides and irrigation; preventing erosion; and reducing greenhouse gases.

We are America’s corn farmers, and we have the facts.
