The Corn Belt is part of the Midwest that produces most of the corn in the United States.[1] This regions consists of the following, ranked by their corn production:[2]

  • Iowa
  • Illinois (has the top 5 counties in the Nation for corn production: McLean County at 71M bushels, and then Iroquois, Livingston, LaSalle, and Champaign counties[3])
  • eastern Nebraska (its college football team's mascot is the Cornhuskers)
  • southern Minnesota
  • western Indiana
  • eastern Kansas
  • South Dakota
  • Ohio
  • Missouri
  • Wisconsin

While the United States continues to be the largest producer of corn in the world, China increasingly competes by ramping up its corn production. Chin imports corn from the United States and Ukraine, and due to the Russia-Ukraine war China increased its imports of corn from the U.S.
