NAWG Resolutions
NAWG’s resolutions give direction to the NAWG officers on critical policy issues affecting wheat growers across the country. These resolutions, approved by NAWG policy committees and the NAWG Board of Directors, are the official policies of the organization.
How We Make Policy
NAWG’s strength comes from the grassroots; stemming directly from wheat growers who research these issues through their livelihoods, help form policy and educate policy makers in Washington, D.C.,
about how these issues affect our nation’s wheat farms.
Policy
Recognizing Needs
NAWG’s policy comes up from the countryside through county committees, which send policy ideas and resolutions to state associations, which set their policy and bring priorities to the national association.
Representation
Farmers who step up to represent their state associations on NAWG’s Board of Directors serve as the crucial link between individual wheat growers, the state organizations and the national organization in
Washington, D.C.
Execution
In conjunction with its grower leaders and state affiliates, NAWG is in regular contact with its federal partners in Washington, D.C., to advocate for the wheat industry. Though these state associations vary in size, composition, and resources, leaders from all affiliates come together to create a strong national organization with a unified wheat-focused voice.
