Bruce Pilkington. It's called the mighty Mississippi for a reason. The churning, swirling economic pipeline that stretches 2320 miles through some of the world's most productive farmland. The Mississippi River, working in tandem with ADM, carries the load, hauling crops from the plains of northern Minnesota and the fields of Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Kentucky and Tennessee. Down through Mississippi and Louisiana to the Gulf of Mexico around every bend, it provides strength to hundreds of local economies. A. T. M's extensive transport network system up and down this vital economic artery and across the rails and roads that feed into it links US farmers to the global marketplace, enabling them to export rivers of corn, soybeans and canola not only to Asia but pretty much anywhere on the planet. U. S exports for fiscal year 2011 are forecast at a record 135 and a half billion dollars, up 27 billion from last year. Particularly impressive given that every billion dollars of agricultural exports supports about 8400 jobs. As global demand for food increases, US farmers are responding, producing record crops more efficiently than ever, and a D. M moves that harvest, exporting about five million bushels of crops and products every single day. As America's farmers continue to rise to the occasion by increasing productivity, ADM stands ready to do the heavy lifting needed to meet thes growing opportunities from the Port of New Orleans to the Port of Shanghai, So economies across America carried by this mighty river can keep on rolling along.
