57. NCGA’s New President, Jed Bower, Is Up for the Challenge
American farmers face generational challenges in today’s market.
And the new president of the National Corn Growers Association, Jed Bower, isn’t shying away from the big tasks ahead of him.
Bower took the reins as NCGA’s top grower-leader effective October 1, on the same day that the U.S. federal government shut down over a funding negotiations standstill.
And in this episode, he’ll explain why Congress needs to get back to work, reopen the government, and make progress on priorities that could help producers find their way back to profitability.
Jed is joined by Lesly McNitt, NCGA’s vice president of public policy.
Together they’ll discuss how to make progress on E15 ethanol blends, deals with new international trading partners, and federal financial assistance for farmers.
