Join Shane Kinne as he talks about the Coalition to Protect the Missouri River. This insightful conversation is sure to spark some interest in the 'Big Muddy.'

Shane spent nearly a decade working with state, federal and NGO partners in his role leading public policy and grower outreach initiatives for the Missouri Corn Growers Association. It was in this role that he gained a deep wealth of knowledge and experience with Missouri River issues as he navigated the organization through the historic flood of 2011 and the years beyond that. Shane also worked with Missouri Corn’s grassroots membership to coordinate state and federal advocacy campaigns and support media relations efforts. Shane has spent the last three years serving a diverse list of agricultural clients for Vivayic Inc, as they consult, develop and deliver on strategic learning solutions to advance client goals and priorities.

Shane lives in Clinton, Missouri, with his wife and two young children. In their free time you can find them exploring the outdoors, chasing their bird dogs, or being involved in the family cattle operation.
