The Northeast Agribusiness and Feed Alliance (NEAFA) Membership Committee and Board of Directors recently added a new category of membership focused on academic and agricultural extension personnel. Members are encouraged to share this new opportunity with those they know that could benefit from being a NEAFA member.
“The new membership category has numerous benefits for academics, cooperative extension professionals and other agricultural supporters”, stated Membership Committee Chair Corwin Holtz “The membership committee wanted to provide a lower priced membership option for those professionals who work tirelessly to support the agriculture industry through their research, education and outreach efforts. NEAFA values the expertise of our academic and extension colleagues and we want give these industry leaders the opportunity to be part of our organization and participate on our committees.”
This membership category does not provide for annual meeting voting rights, but NEAFA welcomes affiliate members to become active committee members, support sponsored programs, and be part of the overall support for the agribusiness community. Affiliate members will also receive the NEAFA newsletter, which keeps members up to date on programs, activities, and agricultural issues that NEAFA is addressing on a regional and national basis.
