June 2021 Arkansas Food Hall of Fame

Corn is the 2021 Arkansas Food of the Year and June 11 was National Corn Day. To celebrate, we thought we would share a few corn statistics with you:

Arkansas growers harvested about 605,000 acres of corn in 2020. Much of Arkansas produced corn is exported via the Mississippi River, but an ever increasing amount is consumed by poultry feed mills located in Arkansas.

This fall, we’ll begin our next round of Arkansas Heritage’s Food Hall of Fame so be thinking about your favorites to nominate.
