Agribusiness Association of Iowa

Agribusiness Association of Iowa The Agribusiness Association of Iowa exists to advocate, communicate, and educate on behalf of a professional agribusiness industry. www.agribiz.org

The Agribusiness Association of Iowa was formed in 1994, as the result of a merger between the Iowa Grain & Feed Association (IGFA) and the Iowa Fertilizer and Chemical Association (IFCA). The IGFA was organized in 1899 by a group of 150 elevator operators who realized many benefits could be gained within the industry by united action. The IFCA was created in 1964, to promote the use of fertilizer

, agricultural chemicals, and other economic plant food carriers in Iowa, and assist in educational and research programs. Learn more about our history here: http://agribiz.org/about-aai/aai-history/

In addition to providing the amplified voice of agribusiness to all of our dues paying members, AAI hosts industry training and connection events throughout the year. Details can frequently be found on this page and on the AAI website.

At World Pork Expo , AAI CEO Julie Kenney joined Sec. Naig and leaders from the National Pork Producers Council , American Soybean Association , and Iowa Farm Bureau for a Farmers for Free Trade roundtable discussion on the importance of the USMCA trade agreement.

Mexico and Canada are our largest trading partners. A full 16-year renewal of USMCA would build on the agreement’s success and provide certainty for investment and growth for farmers and ag businesses.
