Major Economic, Grain and Feed Policy Issues to Headline NGFA's 113th Annual Convention

Major economic and grain and feed policy issues headline the NGFA annual convention.


The NGFA’s convention also will feature working sessions of most of the association’s 17 committees addressing the most pressing issues facing grain elevators, commercial feed mills, integrated livestock and poultry operations, and grain processors and millers. Virtually all NGFA committee meetings are open to all convention registrants. The convention also features a golf tournament to benefit the National Grain and Feed Foundation, as well as an “Ag Village” trade show.
