National Corn Growers Association launches ethanol education competition

In Missouri, the National Corn Growers Association Ethanol Committee has created a new ethanol education competition. High school and college students will be asked to create videos that showcase five facts about ethanol in two minutes or less. The new project will help connect youth to corn-based ethanol, and will be ideal for YouTube, Facebook and Twitter.

The winning videos will be posted on NCGA’s YouTube site, promoted at state events, showcased at county fairs and aired during national meetings. NCGA also hopes the videos will go viral for the general public to view. Competition rules will be promoted to colleges and high schools throughout the nation by early May and again in late August/early September.
