Commodity Advisory Committees

Agriculture in Virginia is an increasingly diverse industry, with dynamic changes occurring locally, regionally, statewide, nationally and internationally. Virginia farmers need a voice and a forum to surface issues that impact their ability to compete in the fast-changing world of production agriculture. Our advisory committees serve as the eyes, ears and voice of our producer membership.

How it works:

Committees voice issues

Our advisory committees identify commodity-specific issues and make recommendations to staff as to how best to address these concerns. The committees address a wide array of subjects relevant to their specific commodities, including production, marketing and legislative issues that impact their ability to compete. All committee members are volunteer leaders from around the state who are interested in engaging at the grassroots level in the issue-position process.
