Radio Interview on WBAA
Cormo USA’s President of the Board, Stefan Muehlbauer, interviewed on WBAA radio as Cormo announces the selection of Indiana for the first production site. “We currently import all of the products that we use in the peat moss industry, and those can be replaced easily by the available corn in the United States,” says Muehlbauer. “Using just 19 percent of the corn harvest waste in the United States, we can go from a 100 percent importer to a 100 percent exporter.” Click here to listen to the interview
