2009 Corn Quality and Cargo Export Reports

The corn quality and export reports funded by the US Grains Council and managed by Centrec Consulting are some of Illinois Crop’s longest-lasting projects. The reports are used worldwide to promote the composition and physical characteristics of the US corn crop. As of May 2004, the project continues as a win for Illinois Crop Improvement and its Identity Preserved Grain Lab.

As posted on their website, “The US Grains Council is committed to helping ensure global customers have accurate, consistent and comparable information about US grain quality. Improved information will facilitate increased trade – and when trade works, the world wins. In this effort, the US Grains Council issues two reports annually, the Corn Harvest Quality Report and Export Cargo Quality Report, to help international buyers of US corn understand the initial quality of US yellow commodity corn as it enters the merchandising channel and as it is assembled for export.” Learn more at Corn Reports Archive – US GRAINS COUNCIL.
