National Corn Growers Association

U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance

USFRA

The U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance is a coalition of more than 60 of the leading national, regional and state farmer-and-rancher organizations, who have joined together to strengthen the image of and enhance public trust in today’s agriculture. The National Corn Growers Association is one of the founders of USFRA, and NCGA Chairman Bart Schott serves as vice-chair of USFRA's Board.

“It’s great to see the high level of passion and partnership USFRA has inspired in those who have been dreaming about a collaboration like this for years,” Schott said. “This is the first time such a wide range of farmer and rancher groups representing every aspect of American agriculture have worked together at this depth for the common good of our industry. It’s a privilege to be a part of this.”

“We’ve got a lot of exciting opportunities coming up in the months ahead to not only get our collective voices heard, but to listen and learn about consumer concerns,” Schott said. “Our message is one of continuous improvement and respect for the land, water and air we use, the animals we raise and the people we feed.”
