NDGGA+22-23.pdf

This is a Memorandum of Agreement between the North Dakota Wheat Commission (the "Commission") and the North Dakota Grain Growers Association (the "NDGGA"), both located in North Dakota. The agreement was executed on July 1, 2022, with a term through June 30, 2023, and involves cooperation between these two state-level agricultural organizations.

The agreement provides for NDGGA to perform various services to support the wheat industry in North Dakota, including developing domestic farm policy, paying national trade association dues, participating in Commission meetings and policy development, informing producers about Commission activities, assisting in obtaining research funding, supporting environmental and conservation initiatives, managing market risks, developing export policies, providing leadership training, and supporting value-added wheat enterprise development. In exchange, the Commission will compensate NDGGA with $360,000, paid in four quarterly installments of $90,000 each from July 1, 2022, through June 30, 2023. The final fifth payment will be determined based on the total revenue collected in the fiscal year 2022-23.
