Nicole Berg: Ag Ambassador
A fourth-generation farmer and former president of the National Association of Wheat Growers, Nicole Berg speaks up for agriculture in a big way. She regularly hits the road to represent ag interests in state and federal policy discussions on topics ranging from the farm bill to pesticide regulations and taxation. She serves on the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation board and spent years as a conservation district leader.
Berg and her father and two brothers run a farming operation near Paterson, Washington, that covers 9,000 acres of irrigated cropland and 11,000 dryland acres, raising wheat and specialty crops. Berg Farms is a long-time member of CHS Primeland, based in Lewiston, Idaho.
“The average American is five generations removed from the farm, so there’s a lack of understanding about what farmers actually do,” she says. “We have to prioritize telling agriculture’s story, so we’re not always playing defense. Getting more people involved will help us create a bigger offense.”
