Today, the National Corn Growers Association (NCGA) board has selected Jon Doggett, NCGA Executive Vice President, as Interim CEO. Jon will start in his new capacity on August 1, upon the departure of Chris Novak.
Jon has served as EVP since 2014. Prior to that, he served as Vice President, Public Policy, and continues to manage the organization’s 11-person Washington office and lead its public policy efforts.
Raised on his family’s Montana ranch, Doggett has substantial knowledge of production agriculture and more than 30 years of agricultural policy experience.
Before joining NCGA, Doggett served 11 years at the American Farm Bureau Federation, where he was the Bureau’s lead lobbyist on a number of public policy issues, including ethanol, climate change, land use, conservation, and endangered species.
While in Washington, Doggett also worked for the National Cattleman’s Beef Association/Public Lands Council and served as senior legislative assistant for former Montana Congressman Ron Marlenee.
An announcement regarding the formal search process for a permanent CEO will be made at a later date.
Welcome
