AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO NEBRASKA CORN GROWERS!
The Governor’s budget presented to the special session of the Nebraska Unicameral included the proposed direct transfer of funds from Nebraska commodity checkoff programs including corn, wheat, sorghum, dry beans, and other farmer-funded, farmer-directed checkoffs into the State’s general fund. This is YOUR money - money you have chosen to invest for the purpose of research, market development and promotion of your commodity.  Money that is managed and invested by a board made up of your fellow farmers. BOTTOM LINE: This was a matter of principle. Checkoff investments are intended for farmer use.   • Click here to see the testimony presented by NeCGA on the issue. • Testimony by Brandon Hunnicutt » • Testimony on LB9 » • Read more »
