INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (Dec. 15, 2025) — Farmers who want to represent agriculture in the legislative halls of state and federal government should consider adding their name to this year’s Indiana Corn Growers Association (ICGA) board election ballot. The ICGA board advocates for Hoosier corn farmers at the local, state and federal levels. ICGA’s governing districts match the nine Congressional districts across the state. This year, ICGA will fill seats in districts 1, 4 and 7.
“This is an opportunity for interested corn growers to take an active part in helping secure a better future for Hoosier farmers,” said ICGA President Alan Dunn, a farmer from rural Clinton County. “ICGA’s mission is to represent the state’s corn farmers to lawmakers who make decisions that affect our business. ICGA offers a platform necessary to talk to the people and agencies who can address those concerns.”
To be eligible, candidates must be an ICGA member in good standing; own, manage or operate a farm that produces corn; reside in the district they represent; and current on membership dues. Elections will take place in the following districts:
- District 1 – Lake, Porter and the northwest corner of LaPorte counties
- District 4 – Benton, Boone, Carroll, Clinton, Hendricks, Jasper, Montgomery, Morgan, Newton, Putnam, Tippecanoe, White, Warren and parts of Cass, Fountain and Howard counties
- District 7 – which includes most of Marion County
Election applications are due to the ICGA office by Jan 30, 2026. Ballots will be mailed to members in May and must be returned by June 30. Winners will start serving on the board in December 2026.
