The U.S. Grains
Council summer meeting is underway in Cincinnati, Ohio.
U.S. Grains Council Chairman Jim Stitzlein says the council is reflecting on opportunities and challenges in the current trade environment.
“We gather to discuss issues facing our industry and explore future demand for feed grains, DDGs, and ethanol around the world,” he says.
Ryan LeGrand is the new president and CEO of
the US Grains Council. He sums up his reason for leading the council in one
word: purpose.
“There’s real purpose in the work that we do here and I’m not disparaging any of the private companies that I’ve worked for over the years, but there’s something about working for an entire industry versus working for one bottom line that’s very fulfilling,” he says.
