Cultivating profitability

Creating opportunities for mutual benefit

KEY CRITERIA used to evaluate investment opportunities — and elements to consider in your proposal — include:

  • Is the investment related in a significant way to value-added agriculture and/or the corn industry?
  • Is the investment consistent with the mission of ICGA, which is to create opportunities for long-term Iowa corn grower profitability?
  • Does the investment have potential to yield returns in less than three years?
  • Does the investment result in the development of products or the delivery of services likely to increase the profits – or reduce the risks – associated with corn production or marketing?
  • Can corn growers invest in the opportunity?
