Ag is North Dakota’s biggest industry, so when a new farm bill gets drafted, it’s a big deal for our state.
That’s why ag industry members, like the North Dakota Corn Growers, are holding meetings next week to get input from interested parties. They plan to take public input to Washington.
“What we’re looking to do is hear from our farmer stakeholders that benefit from the Farm Bill legislation coming up and just want to hear from those producers and what their challenges are, and what they’re facing in their operations,” said Joe Sheldon, a farmer in Washburn and a board member for the North Dakota Corn Growers Association.
