The members of the fenaco cooperative's Board of Directors are appointed on the recommendation of the respective regions. External members are recruited nationally by the Board of Directors. The majority of seats on the Board of Directors must be occupied by farmers from the member cooperatives, and the Presiding Committee must also be made up of working farmers. This ensures that fenaco never loses its focus on its members’ interests and that it is able to fulfil its cooperative mission.
The members of the Board of Directors are elected by the Assembly of Delegates for a four-year term of office. The fenaco cooperative's Board of Directors consists of farmers, chairpersons and members of LANDI Boards of Directors, incumbent members of the LANDI Executive Board, and external parties. This ensures that the members of the Board of Directors are well-versed in the company's activities and enjoy a personal relationship with the stakeholders. The Board of Directors does not include any members of the fenaco Executive Board.
At its monthly meetings, which are attended by members of the Executive Board, the Board of Directors informs itself about how the business is developing and makes decisions accordingly.
