Mission of the NGMA
- To serve the interest of the industry and its members.

There are four classes of membership in the Association. Membership (other than honorary, university or extension) is extended to the company, rather than any individual. Determination of membership eligibility and classification is the responsibility of the Board of Directors. In addition, the Board may also by a majority vote, dismiss or sanction any NGMA member whose conduct is deemed detrimental to the organization. NGMA’s membership year is January 1 – December 31.
