Potato Industry Board Completes District Elections



Wisconsin potato growers have re-elected three directors to the industry's marketing board.

During a recent mail-in ballot election, Eric Schroeder, Antigo, in District 1; James Okray, Stevens Point, District 2; and John Bobeck, Markesan, District 3 were all chosen to retain their seats.

The three growers will serve three-year terms starting July 1.

The nine-member Wisconsin Potato Industry Board is responsible for overseeing the collection and use of about $1.7 million in assessment fees paid by Wisconsin potato growers.

The money is used to support the industry through research, market development and consumer education.
