The Minnesota Wheat Research and Promotion Council (MWRPC) is pleased to announce a new staff member to the MN Wheat team. Shane Dagoberg has been hired as a Communication and Program Associate to assist the Wheat Council staff in facilitating and communicating with wheat growers throughout Minnesota and the region. Shane’s role will be to work with a team to develop and implement an interactive communications plan that engages growers in the process of building an on-farm research network. He will also help organize and deliver information to wheat growers on check-off funded research and marketing projects, as well as Minnesota Association of Wheat Growers’ policy and educational programs.
“All of us here at MN Wheat welcome Shane and look forward to working with him”, says David Torgerson, Executive Director of MWRPC and Minnesota Wheat Growers Association, (MAWG). “This up-coming year will be a very exciting opportunity for us to develop and implement the On-Farm Research network and Shane will be a welcome asset to our team.”
Shane is a graduate with a B.S. in Industrial Technology from Bemidji State University, Bemidji, MN. He also farms near Alvarado, MN. Prior to coming to work for the Minnesota Wheat Council, Shane worked the past seven and a half years for EAPC Architects Engineers of Grand Forks. Shane’s experience with project management and working with people along with his practical understanding of wheat production will serve him well in his new role with the Minnesota Wheat Council and Minnesota Wheat Growers, says Torgerson.
