The nation’s corn growers are calling for immediate action to increase market access. It comes following the bullish WASDE report, which is projecting a record corn crop, leaving producers looking for new outlets.

National Corn Growers Association President Kenny Hartman joined RFD-TV’s Jennifer Vickery-Smith to discuss his big takeaways from the report, his opinion on USDA’s strategy to review acres in August, and if year-round access to E15 would help.
