Speakers
North Dakota Wheat Commission (NDWC) Representative
Commodity elections are important because they offer local producers a direct voice in how wheat checkoff funds are invested. Logan County's elected representatives advocate for local interests and elect one member from the South Central (District 3) region to the seven-person NDWC Board of Commissioners. This grassroots involvement ensures that checkoff programs - ranging from research to market development - align with the actual needs of North Dakota wheat producers.
County representatives serve a four-year term and typically meet once per year at the annual meeting. NDWC District 3 Elections will take place on Monday, March 23rd at 10:30 am at the Amvets Meeting Room in Steele, ND.
