The South Dakota Corn Utilization Council recently elected multiple new officers to serve the organization for 2022. The Council elected Chad Blindauer of Mitchell as president, Jim Ketelhut of Pukwana as vice president and Reno Brueggeman of Miller as secretary/treasurer. President Blindauer says the utilization council has big plans to promote ethanol production this coming year.
He also notes the council has also been in contact with input suppliers to discuss the increase in production costs.
The Corn Utilization Council is responsible for the collection and administration of a one-cent-per-bushel corn check-off program. Money raised through that program funds research and development of new uses and markets for corn and corn byproducts that benefit South Dakota economically
