Do you vote in director elections?

[Rareearth]

There are fewer and fewer good and willing
people to sit on all the community, church,
producer, town, prov., national boards.

There is a dilution of the pool, those willing, able
etc. there are only so many hours, days
available.

Families are under a lot of pressure to keep up
to the new standards of family, business,
demografics, etc and are making difficult personal
choices, determining what are the priorities are.

There are just too many positions to be filled now.
They are all import, seems to be more each year.
Seems to be more demand for those in 40s who
are few and far between.

No easy solutions, except fewer boards working
to a common goal. Some thing like donors
choice?

Gust, why have both a wheat and barley
commission in SK? Why 2 boards?

Set goals, policies and frameworks that
allow the staff, the people who do all
the work anyways, achieve those goals.
From my experience having more and more
farmers in the same rooms actually end up
doing less and less.

Agree that combining directors and crops is better. Cannot farm without rotation. Fusarium and other diseases all have different strains affecting other crops. And why not put the best men in the right postition for the job.
Monies can still be alloted to their respective crops. I am for all mandatory crop check off.
