The new chair of the AgGateway Board of Directors is Karen Oerter, who leads the IT group at Winfield United, a brand of Land O’ Lakes Inc. She takes over the leadership role from Scott Charbo of Nutrien.

Oerter was appointed to the board in 2022 when Jeremy Wilson vacated the board position to join AgGateway staff. She is excited about the future of AgGateway.

“We’re in a continuum of a growth mode, trying to be more global and spread across the ag industry,” said Oerter in an interview at the AgGateway conference this week in Austin. “And just continuing to get more membership across, you know more organizations, whether it be government organizations, manufacturers, wholesalers, retailers and then some of the allied suppliers that are also interested, they see an opportunity to help the agriculture industry and then also internationally.”
