We’ve Got Your Seat at the Table

Life as a farmer has no shortage of challenges, but you’re not facing those challenges alone. Ohio Corn & Wheat is fighting for your farm. So while you’re busy farming and raising a family, your Association is advocating for you in Columbus and DC.

Join your fellow growers in the Ohio Corn & Wheat Growers Association to fight for a comprehensive farm bill, protect crop insurance, strengthen market programs, and establish smart ethanol policy – all to protect your farm’s bottom line.

We’re at the table when you can’t be, bringing your voice to Columbus and DC. We’ve got your back. We’ve got your seat. Join us today!

What does the association do for me? 

We work directly with lawmakers and elected officials to propel legislation that supports you and your farm — at the state and federal level. We fight to preserve your freedom to farm and ensure that your operation is profitable for generations to come. We are the only Ohio organization dedicated to expanding the demand for ethanol, a valuable market for your corn. 

 

I already contribute to the checkoff, why do I need to join the association?

By law, checkoff dollars cannot support policy and advocacy. Joining the association is the only way to help us educate and lobby elected officials and policymakers in support of agriculture and Ohio corn and small grain farmers.

 

What do I get when I become a member?

You’ll get security and peace of mind from knowing that we have your back and are advocating for you at the Statehouse and in D.C. Joining the Ohio Corn & Wheat Growers Association automatically makes you part of the National Corn Growers Association and the National Association of Wheat Growers as well.  

We also offer exclusive programming to our members that provides leadership training and engagement opportunities at the state and national level. 

Our members get access to additional benefits, including health and disability insurance, as well as discounts to retailers nationwide.
