The U.S. Grains Council has voted on a name change.
The group is now called the U.S. Grains and Bio Products Council. Group president Ryan LeGrand says the new name brings together the group’s grain and ethanol sides, creating a powerhouse organization. They got their start back in 1960 as the U.S. Feed Grains Council, and that name was voted out in 1998 when they became the U.S. Grains Council.
Ryan LeGrand, President and CEO of the group, joined RFD-TV’s Suzanne Alexander to discuss the decision to change the name, if he sees it having an impact globally in the areas of marketing grains, and what new programs will come with the new name.
