The Illinois Department of Agriculture announced today the following Illinois wheat producers have met the qualifications required to be placed on the ballot for the upcoming October 30, 2025, Illinois Wheat Development Board election.

“Illinois wheat producers play an important role in both our state’s agricultural strength and the nation’s food supply,” said Jerry Costello II, Director of the Illinois Department of Agriculture. “By working together and sharing their perspectives, growers can help ensure continued innovation, market growth, and long-term success for the industry.”

At-Large Candidates (3): Brandon Warren- Wayne County, John Howell-Randoph County, No Candidate; District I: No Candidate; District II: Dean Campbell-Madison County; District III: Ross Holscher-Crawford County; District IV: Steve Launis-Washington County; District V: No Candidate; District VI: Jamie Harvel-Clay County

Qualified producers interested in serving as an At-Large or District Board member may participate in the October 30, 2025, election as a write in candidate. Producers must be of legal voting age, reside in the district for which they are running and be a qualified producer of wheat. Absentee ballots are available to those not available to vote in person by contacting the Illinois Department of Agriculture at 217-524-1083 or by email at agr.marketnews@illinois.gov. In most counties, in person voting will take place at the local county Farm Bureau offices during normal business hours.
