BISMARCK – Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring announced that applications are open for trade show participation grants. The program will assist North Dakota value-added agriculture companies in exploring domestic wholesale markets by exhibiting at trade shows outside of the state.
“Exhibiting at a domestic trade show can help boost sales, make key business connections and diversify markets,” Goehring said. “Value-added ag companies who can produce on a larger scale are encouraged to apply to promote their products.”

Applications are due Dec. 26, 2025, and may be subject to a review committee if the number of applications exceeds available funding.
