Back to the Corn Grind

Chuck Zimmerman

When I hear that it’s time to get “back to the grind,” I think of going back to work. For the corn industry, Back to the Grind is the theme of the 2012 Corn Utilization Technology Conference.

With a theme of “Back to the Grind,” CUTC will feature the cutting-edge technologies and new uses that continually improve and dynamically change the corn industry.

The conference will debut a third tier of presentation options offering participants the opportunity to hear the latest on mycotoxin research. This new offering has been added to complement the work of the Aflatoxin Mitigation Center of Excellence, which continues to emphasis the importance of developing methods to mitigate and control mycotoxin development in all phases of production and processing.

So I’ll be going back to the grind again this year for the conference where I’ll be conducting interviews with researchers and presenters. Some of my coverage will be featured here on AgWired but most will be appearing on Corn Commentary, the award winning blog of the National Corn Growers Association.

Next week’s event is just one of several where you’ll find members of the ZimmComm team. Cindy will be attending a BASF media event and World Pork Expo and Jamie will be attending the Fuel Ethanol Workshop. We’ll be putting a lot of time on the agriblogging highway!
