Registration is open for the U.S. Grains Council’s (USGC’s) 58th Annual Board of Delegates meeting, scheduled to be held July 30 to Aug. 1 in Denver, Colorado.
“This meeting will be an excellent opportunity for you to engage directly with fellow delegates and Council staff on opportunities and challenges facing U.S. agriculture,” wrote Deb Keller, USGC chairman and farmer from Iowa, in a letter inviting members to the meeting.
“True to this year’s theme, Friends and Frontiers, we will dive into discussions on our global efforts to strengthen relationships with key partners and build new demand for coarse grains and co-products, including ethanol.”
The Council’s Advisory Teams (A-Teams) will also meet to receive updates on specific commodities and markets and provide direction for USGC staff in the coming critical months. During a business meeting at the conference, USGC delegates will adopt next year’s budget and elect new officers and board members.
