LINCOLN — In the winter of 2022, the Nebraska Corn Board (NCB) and Nebraska Corn Growers Association (NeCGA) began joint strategic planning efforts for the Nebraska corn industry to update the strategic plan that was established for 2017-2022.
Over several months, the organizations evaluated the realities of the corn industry, anticipated significant issues and trends affecting both domestic and export markets. Together, the boards developed a strategic plan to guide their efforts and optimize resource allocation. In June, both organizations approved the new plan, providing direction for the next five years.
The strategic plan has a shared Nebraska Corn vision and values, and three distinct strategy segments: joint strategies, NCB specific strategies and NeCGA specific strategies.
For more than 50 years, the Nebraska Corn Growers Association has been an independent association focused on engaging corn farmers across the state through education, policy and leadership development. Since 1978, Nebraska’s corn checkoff success has helped to grow markets for corn through education, market development, research and promotion.
Nebraska Corn has maintained a strong reputation as a leader among a diverse set of key stakeholders at state, national and international levels, and will continue to focus on enhancing demand, adding value and ensuring sustainability through effective programs and projects.
The Nebraska Corn Board will hold its next meeting on Friday, Aug. 18, at Cardinal Inn Hotel (2588 State Hwy. 14) in Albion.
The Board will conduct regular board business.
The meeting is open to the public and will provide an opportunity for public discussion.
