Colorado Corn Cultivating Opportunities

The Colorado Corn Growers Association, first established in 1979, works in the interest of corn producers by engaging in education, research, market development and promotional activities that create improved farm sustainability and profitability. CCGA also represents its members in legislative efforts that benefit corn producers and rural America.

The CCGA is funded in part by member dues and corporate sponsorships, and may engage in other revenue generating activities. The CCGA may receive Local, State or Federal project grants from governmental entities.

While separate and distinct in its organizational structure, the CCGA works in concert with the CCAC to achieve common goals related to developing better markets, more uses, and improved profitability for corn producers in Colorado.

The Colorado Corn Administrative Committee, established in 1987 as provided in The Colorado Agricultural Marketing Act of 1939, Title 35, Article 28, is authorized in statute to manage funds collected at the rate of 1 cent per bushel from sales of corn in Colorado for the purposes of market development, promotion, research, and education on behalf of corn producers in this state.

The shared mission of the Colorado Corn Administrative Committee and the Colorado Corn Growers Association:

To enhance our stakeholders way of life and to provide vision and direction for current and future challenges by enhancing the value of corn, being good land stewards, and providing services and education.
