3 thoughts on “Florida agtech firm aims to profit from Indiana corn waste

  1. Quote: Muehlbauer moved to Indiana earlier this year, and he’s been impressed by the overall business climate.

    Cormo USA turns corn stalks left after the harvest into a peat moss replacement. “I had never been to Indiana when we started thinking about moving our company’s facility here,” he said. “But what I found here; the infrastructure, the universities, the human capital and drive to get things done have all far exceeded all our expectations.”

    Interesting commentary from someone without a cultural ax to grind; i.e., not accusing Hoosiers of being backward as so many culture warriors are inclined to do.

    ‘Glad to see Cormo USA found Indiana to be a decent place to open this business. Welcome to The Hoosier State!
