Last week's executive order allows farmers to exceed exceed regular weight limits by up to 10 percent on state and local highways. (An update to an existing permit or a special permit is still required.)

Congrats, Dana! We appreciate your service on behalf of corn farmers in Minnesota.
Help us welcome and congratulate these additions to the NCGA Corn Board! These farmers have stepped up to advocate for corn growers on a national level. We appreciate their commitment and look forward to working together.

Today, our farmer-leaders continued their advocacy around fertilizer prices at an event with @DepSecVaden. Farmers are encouraged to confidentially submit information they have regarding unfair practices at savefamilyfarms.us.
From his background in farming to his experience founding the Minnesota Agricultural Water Resource Center, Warren Formo was a tremendous advocate on behalf of corn farmers and agriculture. Read our remembrance of Warren here:

We need more homegrown fuel, not less. ↓
Whether it’s robust #RVOs or year-round #E15, we need strong federal biofuels policy to secure more homegrown biofuels in our nation’s fuel supply. Read more from my piece in @EthanolMagazine: ethanolproducer.com/articles…
Thanks to the hard work of @MNBiofuels, Minnesota has become a national leader in E15.
Congrats on the well-deserved award!
Last Friday, we received the 2026 Paul Dana Marketing Vision Award from @ACEethanol in recognition of our work over the years to expand access to E15 and higher blends across Minnesota! bit.ly/4crprpt

Thanks to @GOPMajorityWhip for his leadership on behalf of corn farmers and rural communities in Minnesota!
House Republicans just passed H.R. 1346 the Nationwide Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act.
This bill allows the year-round sale of E15 gasoline nationwide, expanding fuel choice, supporting American farmers, and helping lower costs at the pump.
Congrats @RepAdrianSmith!
