Getting to Know Nancy

Cindy and Nancy at AMSWe finally got to meet the new National Corn Growers Association Director of Communications Nancy Bunker Koester at the Agricultural Media Summit this week in Tampa.

AMS gave Nancy the chance to meet and interact with a hundreds of ag media professionals and other industry leaders. She is not unfamiliar with this industry, having worked for Monsanto – which is ironically where her predecessor Mimi Ricketts now works. She has also done some consulting work with NCGA in the past.

She is pictured here with me at the AMS 10th anniversary dinner. Chuck did an interview with her earlier in the day about her background and plans for working with the corn growers on important issues.

“We have a message to get out about food, fuel and feed, that there’s plenty of corn seed to go around for that,” Nancy said. “And we’re working to fervently to be sure people know that.”
