US EditionSecretary Naig Comments on USDA’s Annual Sate and National Crop Production Summary
Secretary Naig calls for a modern Farm Bill and year-round E15 to boost corn demand after Iowa set record corn production at 2.77 billion bushels in 2025.
- In January, Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Mike Naig commented in Des Moines on the United States Department of Agriculture National Agricultural Statistics Service 2025 Crop Production Annual Summary, released annually in January.
- Facing a variable season, Iowa farmers endured rain, drought and disease pressure but still delivered a historic, record-breaking crop in the 2025 growing season.
- USDA data show 2025 national corn production reached 17.0 billion bushels, Iowa corn production hit 2.77 billion bushels, and national soybean production totaled 4.26 billion bushels.
- Naig warned this productivity comes amid real stress in the ag economy, with tight margins driven by high input costs and low commodity prices, emphasizing that strong domestic demand and export markets are essential to supporting Iowa's ag economy.
- He pressed Congress and the Administration to enact a five-year Farm Bill and finalize RFS volumes, saying year‑round nationwide E15 `would create more than two billion bushels of additional demand for corn`.
