Greg Goodwin Elected President of the Illinois Sustainable Ag Partnership


By Tara Desmond March 5, 2026

We’re excited to share that Greg Goodwin, director of IL Corn’s premiere conservation program - Precision Conservation Management, has been named President of the Illinois Sustainable Ag Partnership (ISAP). The Illinois Sustainable Ag Partnership is a collaborative network of organizations working together to advance sustainable agriculture across the state. ISAP’s mission is to support a systems-based approach that improves soil health, enhances water quality, and helps farmers adopt profitable conservation practices - all while contributing to broader goals like those outlined in the Illinois Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy.

 

IL Corn and Precision Conservation Management have long partnered with ISAP to leverage shared resources, consistent messaging, and technical training that support farmers in adopting soil health and nutrient-management practices. Through this partnership, we work alongside peers from universities, non-profits, industry groups, and government to build practical tools and networks that make sustainable conservation more achievable for growers.

 

Goodwin shared, “I’m honored to serve as the next President of the Illinois Sustainable Ag Partnership and to help lead a coalition that’s focused on meaningful, practical solutions for soil health, clean water, and farmer profitability. Strengthening collaboration across the agriculture community has never been more important, and I’m proud to be part of this leadership team driving positive change.”
