Welcome to the North Dakota Wheat Commission!
Since 1959, the North Dakota Wheat Commission, has been dedicated to expanding trade and marketing opportunities for the wheat grown by North Dakota farmers. Our mission is focused on both U.S. and international markets , and we achieve this through several key initiatives:
These efforts are funded by wheat producers through a checkoff of a penny and a half on each bushel of wheat sold, ensuring continuous support for our programs.
Developing and Maintaining Market Opportunities
We work to introduce and promote premium North Dakota wheat in markets across the globe and establish repeat business in a competitive global market.
Funding Research
Our research funding is invested across the full spectrum, ensuring wheat is profitable for our producers and meets the quality needs of the world’s premium customers.
Addressing Policies that Impact Producers
We work closely with grower groups to encourage state and federal policies that align with producer goals.
Reinforcing Grain Food Consumption
By advocating for the benefits of wheat foods, we hope to increase the demand for wheat-based products and clear up consumer misinformation on wheat production and wheat foods..
Influencing Trade Policies
We actively engage in shaping international import and export policies to benefit North Dakota wheat producers.
