In this episode of Rooted & Restless, Marianne Smith Edge sits down with grain trader Ben Scholl, president of Osterbur & Associates, to reveal what happens to crops like corn after they leave the farm.
Ben explains how corn moves from growers to food manufacturers around the world—and why not all corn is created equal. The conversation explores how grain is bought and sold months—or even years—ahead of harvest, how global demand influences what farmers grow, and the complex logistics behind moving millions of bushels from Midwest fields to customers worldwide.
