Maag Appointed To Oregon Board Of Ag
Governor Tina Kotek announced Tuesday the appointment of Kirk Maag to the Oregon State Board of Agriculture. Maag, an environmental and natural resources partner at Stoel Rives law firm, says his personal roots to Oregon’s agriculture community run deep. He grew up working on his family’s farm and feedlot in rural eastern Oregon.
“It is an honor to be appointed to serve on the Board of Agriculture," Maag said. "The Board’s vision of cultivating ‘a resilient tomorrow for generations to come’ resonates with me, and is a guiding principle I have applied to both my legal career and civic engagement. I am grateful for the opportunity to continue serving our state’s agricultural community and creating a positive impact for our future. I am excited to serve alongside many distinguished industry peers.”
Maag was recently selected as the 2024 Alumni Fellow for the College of Agricultural Science by the Oregon State University Alumni Association based on his "commitment to cultivating community in the next generation of agribusiness and forest products industry leaders". The College of Ag also recognized Maag as its 2024 Alumni Luminary, an award given to an individual who has made early career and community contributions that identify the recipient as a future leader.
Maag’s appointment is effective immediately; he will serve a four-year term with an option to reapply for a second term.
