## Resource

Farm4Profit is back at Iowa Speedway with Iowa Corn CEO Craig Floss and Iowa Speedway President Eric Petersen to talk racing, ethanol, and why NASCAR has become such a powerful platform for agriculture. From NASCAR running E15 and expanding ethanol demand around the world to a sold-out Iowa Corn 350, a complete track repave, and a coveted July 4th weekend race in 2027, this conversation shows what can happen when agriculture and motorsports work together.
