TEGMA focuses its expertise and advocates for transportation and infrastructure policy that promotes efficiency, competition, and safety in handling and transporting of North American grain and grain products. Producers depend on an effective and economic transportation system to deliver their products to domestic and world consumers.

Transportation Committee

TEGMA serves as a vehicle to surface issues among our members. When certain issues in the industry arise, TEGMA first addresses them in the Transportation Committee, and then when appropriate, forms Task Forces to address them specifically.
