What is the Grain & Feed Association of
Illinois?
It is a voluntary, not for profit trade association composed of competing
firms in the grain and feed business working together to solve industry
problems, promote its progress and enhance its service.
How is it financed?
By annual dues and other income received from member services. Association
dues represent your investment in the Association.
Why should you belong?
Most small business people cannot afford the time required to adequately
represent themselves in the halls of state and federal government and
before other agencies. Individual grain and feed dealers have learned that
they must join together and create a single voice loud enough to be heard
by legislators, agency administrators and by all those who claim to do
good for everyone at the expense of a few.
