Bill Northey Visits with IAS Board Members

Jul 02, 2021


Bill Northey, former USDA Under Secretary and Iowa Secretary of Agriculture joined the IAS Board of Directors this week to discuss relevant agriculture issues impacting IAS and our member owners.  We enjoyed the wisdom Bill shared from his past experiences as well as his outlook on Iowa Agriculture. The IAS Board of Directors regularly invests time for continuing education as part of their role to provide the best leadership possible for the IAS members and employees.
