Getting Corn Fed With Shannon Brown

Ethanol plants aren’t the only thing that’s corn fed. Shannon Brown is corn fed too and she played the song for us in a great concert tonight. She’ll be doing the same later this week at the Commodity Classic which is the combined annual meetings of the National Corn Growers Association, the American Soybean Association and the National Association of Wheat Growers. But we got her first.

I asked her about the song and how it all came about and what she thinks of the ethanol business that she’s been involved in through her sponsorship by VeraSun Energy.

Shannon says the song reflects the fact that she’s a corn fed Iowa girl and the song signifies who she is and where she comes from. She says that working with VeraSun has been an eye opener and she’s fully behind the mission of the ethanol industry. She says consumers should definitely feel comfortable putting it in their car.
