Federal Maritime Commission (FMC) Commissioner Daniel B. Maffei was the featured keynote speaker at the Midwest Agriculture Summit.
The event convened U.S. agriculture exporters and other stakeholders from the Upper-Midwest region to discuss the challenges faced by shippers across the logistics, finance, energy, and agricultural-technology sectors.
During his presentation, Commissioner Maffei stressed the efficacy of active engagement with government officials and regulators, as well as the importance of the FMC remaining in constant communication with agricultural stakeholders across the Midwest and throughout the United States.
Following the Summit, Commissioner Maffei joined a smaller group of agriculture exporters to discuss the ways in which the FMC can assist with the challenges they encounter on a day-to-day basis.
The Summit was hosted by the West Fargo Chamber of Commerce and was held in Fargo, North Dakota, on June 10, 2025.
