In October, the Missouri Corn Merchandising Council and Missouri Corn Growers Association released a short documentary highlighting the personal stories behind the 2011 Missouri River flood. The 15-minute film, Underwater and Overlooked: Crisis on the Missouri River, has since been viewed by thousands of people across the state and shared through social media outlets.
This weekend, a shortened version of the Missouri Corn film will be aired on RFD-TV's This Week in AgriBusiness with Orion Samuelson and Max Armstrong. The broadcast schedule is as follows:
Saturday, Jan. 28 - 7 a.m. (CST);
Sunday, Jan. 29 - 5 a.m. and 8 p.m.; and
Monday, Jan. 30 - 8 a.m.
Our goal has always been to give corn growers a louder voice and change how the Missouri River is managed. This is about more than flooded farms and homes - it is about people's lives and livelihoods. Be sure to tune in to RFD-TV this weekend as this story is shared with households across America.
Thank you for your continued help and support.
Sincerely,
Becky Frankenbach
Director of Communications
