Chesterfield, MO -- Matt Frostic, of Applegate, Mich., began his term today as president of the National Corn Growers Association, a farmer-led trade association with offices in St. Louis and Washington.
Frostic, who farms 1,000 acres of corn, soybeans, edible beans and sugar beets, spent his first day in the role outlining his priorities as president. These include securing passage of legislation that allows for the year-round sale of fuels with 15% ethanol blends, passing the farm bill and diversifying demand for corn.
"These goals may seem ambitious, but we are going to do everything possible to make them a reality," Frostic said. "Farmers work day and night, at times through difficult conditions, to produce a crop that feeds and fuels America and the world. We deliver, and we expect our representatives in Washington to work hard and deliver as well."
Frostic brings extensive advocacy experience to his new role. He has spent the last year chairing NCGA's Input Cost Task Force. In that role, he has worked to identify solutions to bring costs more in line with today's commodity prices. He has also spent the last year serving as NCGA's vice president and as chair of the organization's resolutions committee, and as a member of the finance committee. Frostic is a former president and chair of the Michigan Corn Growers Association.
The NCGA board chooses a member from the governing body to serve as president each year. The term begins on October 1, the start of NCGA's fiscal year.
