Today, we're proud to announce that Paul Noe will be the next President and CEO of CRA. Paul is an accomplished advocate with decades of experience shaping public policy and regulatory strategy. He’ll bring that depth of experience and a strategic mindset to CRA as he works to advance the American corn refining industry. Paul will officially join the CRA team on October 1st. Please join us in congratulating Paul and welcoming him to CRA!

Happy Independence Day! Today, we'll see the Kernel of Innovation in action as communities across the country light fireworks that use cornstarch to increase the burn and pop 🎆 We hope everyone has a safe and celebratory Fourth of July! 🇺🇲

It's our favorite day of the year - National Corn Day! Corn is one of the most versatile vegetables, used in food products, car components, advanced bioproducts, packaging products, and a whole host of other goods. There's nearly no limit to what corn can do. We hope your day is filled with the Kernel of Innovation!

Worker safety is a shared priority across the corn refining industry, and CRA's members have proven results. Meaningful progress takes time, commitment, and continuous improvement, and now we see the results of that effort as corn refining has become an example of safety in food manufacturing. Today, we’re proud to recognize five member companies for their strong safety performance over the past year. These companies, representing 12 facilities, earned 25 workplace safety awards, reflecting decades of ongoing investment in safer operations and stronger protections for teams. Their strong leadership in protecting workers and advancing workplace safety builds on @USDOL and @OSHA_DOL standards. At CRA, we’re committed to supporting industry-wide progress on workplace safety, and we’re encouraged to see these efforts recognized. Congratulations to @Cargill, @Ingredion, ADM, Grain Processing Corporation, and Primient on this well-earned achievement. We look forward to the continued progress ahead. corn.org/2025-workplace-safe…
