Membership Benefits

Across North Carolina, AgLeaders have decided to invest in the future of the Agribusiness Industry by becoming a member of the NC Agribusiness Council. Listed below are many of the benefits of NCAg membership. If you are an AgLeader who has not yet invested in NCAg membership, please contact our Membership Services Department and we will be happy to add your voice. Together, we can make a difference and ensure that the NC AgVoice is heard loud and clear by Elected Officials both in NC and in DC!

VOICE

Various member events throughout the year provide you the opportunity to associate with the "movers and shakers" of the Agribusiness Industry, as well as have your voice heard by elected officials making decisions regarding your business and industry. Member events are different each year based on issues and needs of membership, but events can include:

AgDay at the General Assembly: NC Agribusiness Council members have the opportunity to unite with other AgLeaders to speak in a unified voice to elected officials at the General Assembly and raise awareness of the impressive impact of the Agribusiness Industry on NC's economy.

AgLeaders Banquet: Once a year, the Council holds its annual membership meeting where the Who's Who of North Carolina Agribusiness come together to meet and talk about issues important to their business or operation as well as to meet the leaders of our state and impress upon them the importance of the Agribusiness Industry.

AgCandidates Forum: During an election year, the Council hosts Candidates Forums on various statewide races that have a significant impact on the Agribusiness Industry. This helps you make an informed decision on candidates' positions as it relates to Agribusiness in North Carolina.

AgIssue Workshops: Throughout the year, Council members have the opportunity to participate in several small-group workshops focused on a single Ag-related issue to further their understanding and knowledge about the topic.
