Kansas Corn is inviting corn growers to attend one of its 2018 listening tour stops scheduled at nine locations across the state in August. For the third year, Kansas Corn is conducting a listening tour to reach farmers and industry partners to discuss issues impacting corn and agriculture. Kansas Corn will provide a meal and refreshments while diving into several topics including trade, ethanol, corn markets, education, farm bill and local challenges and opportunities.
Kansas Corn will hold dinners in Iola, Valley Falls, Hoxie, Colwich, Concordia, Kismet, Sharon Springs, Osage City and Lyons. The listening tour is sponsored by the Kansas Corn Growers Association and Kansas Corn Commission.
