🌽 Happy National Corn on the Cob Day!

In the Pacific Northwest, corn plays a direct role in feeding livestock, supporting dairy production, and moving food through the supply chain.

U.S. farmers produced a record 17.0 billion bushels of corn, with an average yield of 186.5 bushels per acre in 2025.

Corn supports the supply chain through:

• Silage for dairy operations
• Feed for beef, dairy, poultry, and swine
• Fresh corn for consumers
• Ingredients for packaged foods
• Export products that support agricultural markets

In the Northwest, corn is not just a seasonal food. It supports dairies, feed operations, processors, transportation, and rural economies.

Root Ag Advisory supports the landowners, producers, and agricultural operations helping keep that system moving.
