Nominations Open For Potato Board

The Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection is accepting nominations through March 31 for three seats on the Wisconsin Potato Industry Board.

The Wisconsin Potato Industry Board is composed of nine producers in three districts across the state, with one at-large member elected every third year. The board oversees the collection and use of approximately $1.7 million in assessment fees paid by Wisconsin potato growers. This funding is used to support the potato industry through research, education, and promotion of Wisconsin-grown potatoes.

Producers who grow and sell potatoes in the following districts are eligible to nominate producers or be nominated to the board:

  • District 1 – Ashland, Barron, Bayfield, Brown, Burnett, Chippewa, Clark, Door, Douglas, Dunn, Eau Claire, Florence, Forest, Iron, Kewaunee, Langlade, Lincoln, Marinette, Menominee, Oconto, Oneida, Pepin, Pierce, Polk, Price, Rusk, Sawyer, St. Croix, Taylor, Vilas, and Washburn counties
  • District 2 – Marathon, Outagamie, Portage, Shawano, Waupaca, and Waushara counties
  • District 3 – Adams, Buffalo, Calumet, Columbia, Crawford, Dane, Dodge, Fond du Lac, Grant, Green, Green Lake, Iowa, Jackson, Jefferson, Juneau, Kenosha, La Crosse, Lafayette, Manitowoc, Marquette, Milwaukee, Monroe, Ozaukee, Racine, Richland, Rock, Sauk, Sheboygan, Trempealeau, Vernon, Walworth, Washington, Waukesha, Winnebago, and Wood counties

DATCP will mail nomination forms to eligible growers. Producers must sign, notarize, and postmark completed nomination forms by March 31 and include signatures from at least five eligible growers other than the nominee.

Growers should mail completed forms to P.O. Box 8911, Madison, WI 53708-8911. Growers who have not received a nomination form by March 1 or have other questions about the nomination process should email [email protected].

DATCP will conduct the Wisconsin Potato Industry Board election from May 10 through June 15. Elected growers will serve three-year terms beginning July 1 and ending June 30, 2026.
