There are numerous issues for rural voters to consider at the ballot box. “One of the issues pertinent to this election is the need to have year-round E15 available for sale to consumers in the state of North Dakota,” said Brenda Elmer, executive director, North Dakota Corn Growers Association. “It’s very important to our corn growers, but also North Dakota residents who are enduring high inflation.” State commodity groups have a legislative tour scheduled for Friday for the newly-elected state legislators. “It will be in the Jamestown area and we are going to have them go through Cavendish (Farms) for potatoes and Spiritwood for the ethanol plants and the crush plant there, then we’ll have a farmer panel for discussion.”
