59. A Holiday Message from NCGA President Jed Bower
2025 was some kind of year for America’s corn growers.
A record crop was overshadowed by market concerns and uncertainty, and it seems like the roller coaster ride will continue into 2026.
But through it all, NCGA’s volunteers and staff have been grinding it out on behalf of members, advancing a policy agenda to boost demand for America’s crop and protect growers’ ability to do their jobs.
In this holiday message, NCGA President Jed Bower shares his thoughts on a couple of NCGA’s big wins from 2025, like opening new avenues for trade, reversing Mexico’s GMO corn ban, protecting access to crop protection tools, and advancing farm tax policy wins in Congress.
And, we take a look ahead to the big priorities for 2026, including a nationwide, year-round E15 bill.
Merry Christmas, happy holidays and a happy new year from all of us here at NCGA.
