The NCGA Corn Board represents the organization on all matters while directing both policy and supervising day-to-day operations. Board members serve the organization in a variety of ways. They represent the federation of state organizations, supervise the affairs and activities of NCGA in partnership with the chief executive officer and implement NCGA policy established by the Corn Congress. Members also act as spokespeople for the NCGA and enhance the organization’s public standing on all organizational and policy issues.
Applications are due Friday, January 22. Nominated candidates will be introduced at the 2021 Corn Congress meeting. Corn Board members will be elected at the July 2021 Corn Congress in Washington, D.C., and the new terms begin October 1.
