NPC’s annual Washington Summit provides a forum for potato industry members to discuss, define, and advocate for the policy priorities impacting their businesses and protecting their ability to farm.
Throughout the week, participants:
- Hear from the nation’s top political and policy experts
- Welcome NPC’s new officers and grower leaders
- Meet with members of Congress representing potato-growing states and districts
- … and unite as an industry in Standing Up for Potatoes on Capitol Hill!
During the 2024 NPC Washington Summit, attendees will advocate for issues such as keeping potatoes in federal nutrition programs, promoting free and fair-trade agreements, and protecting tax policies that support the long-term health of family-owned farming operations.

One week after the 2024 General Election, there`s a lot we know (and even more we don`t know) about the prospect for pro-potato and pro-agriculture policy efforts in 2025 and beyond. Calling into the Eye on Potatoes Podcast this week was Randy Russell, President of The Russell Group, and NPC CEO Kam Quarles to talk about the impact of rural voters in the election and what a new Trump Administration and a GOP-controlled Congress could mean for the Farm Bill, ag labor reform, trade opportunities, and other policy priorities.
