The Board of Directors of the Farm Equipment Manufacturers Association (FEMA) elected new officers during the Marketing and Distribution Convention held Wednesday, Oct. 29 in Las Vegas. The meeting marked a milestone—75 years of the Association’s ongoing dedication to supporting the shortline equipment industry.
Leading the Association as President will be Marc Ivey, District Sales Manager for Bush Hog, Dixie Chopper, and RhinoAg in Selma, AL. These brands are part of the Alamo Group family of companies, a leader in the North American agricultural market known for rotary cutters, finishing mowers, zero-turn mowers, and other tractor-mounted implements.
The Board elected Ivey to a one-year term effective immediately. He succeeds Craig Harthoorn, former President of Oxbo Forage Division. Serving alongside Ivey in officer roles are:
- First Vice President Scott Eisenmenger, General Manager at West Point Design in West Point, NE
- Second Vice President Phil Landoll, Vice President of Operations at Landoll Corp. in Marysville, KS
- Treasurer Tim Burenga, Vice President of Sales and Purchasing at Worksaver, Inc. in Litchfield, IL
- Secretary Roger Murdock, Director of Sales and Marketing at Montag Mfg. in Trafalgar, IN
- Ex-Officio: Randy Reinke, President and CEO of Custom Products of Litchfield, MN
These officers will lead a 16-member Board of Directors. The Association serves as the voice, advocate, and resource for more than 615 companies across the farm implement supply chain, including manufacturers, component part providers, service providers, and equipment marketers.
