now open for the 54th Annual Board of Delegates Meeting July 28-30, 2014. Make

and agribusiness representatives to learn about keynote speaker Howard G.
Buffet’s foundation’s commitment to agriculture, Council efforts in Africa, the
future of freight and other key issues affecting our industry around the world.
“This year, the Council is
celebrating ‘Partnerships & Possibilities,’” says Julius Schaaf, USGC
chairman. “We’ll explore this theme with three days of discussion revolving
around export growth, global strategy, emerging opportunities and competitive
challenges.”
Volunteer leadership,
engagement and vision are at the foundation of the Council’s work around the
world and around the clock. In Omaha, the Board of Delegates will elect
officers and directors for the upcoming year. The Advisory Teams will review
the Unified Export Strategy – the Council’s program goals, priorities and
strategies – for 2015. Attendees will leave with a refreshed perspective on the
work necessary to keep the United States at the forefront of global
agricultural trade.
