Policies and Issues
While the North Dakota Wheat Commission has historically had a policy of not entering into the debate on traditional farm bill issues, except to point out how such matters affect the marketing of wheat and wheat products, we do work aggressively in the area of state, national and international policies and regulations that affect the importation and exportation of wheat and take necessary action when such policies and regulations have an adverse effect on domestic and export markets.
In this regard, the Commission works with U.S. Wheat Associates, the Wheat Export Trade Education Committee, the National Association of Wheat Growers, and state grower and farm organizations to educate elected and appointed government officials about how trade policies and issues affect producers' ability to compete for domestic and export market share.
The issues the Commission deals with range from export credit programs to trade sanctions, from grain quality and transportation rates to regional and international trade agreements.
