North Dakota Corn Council

The North Dakota Corn Utilization Council was organized in 1991 to utilize the North Dakota corn checkoff dollars implemented by North Dakota Century Code 4.1-04.The North Dakota Corn Growers Association is a farmer-led membership group focusing on farm policy, regulatory issues, leadership development and grower education that enhances the future of North Dakota corn producers.  The North Dakota Corn Utilization Council has the responsibility of allocating the state corn checkoff dollars for research, education and promotion of corn funded through the 1/4 of 1% of the value per bushel checkoff assessed on all corn marketed in the state.  The two distinct groups work together to grow a healthy, profitable business climate for northern corn.
