Chairwoman Bernadine Guilleux said three director positions were available this year, following the retirement of Barry O’Neil and Hugh Ritchie and Kathryn de Bruin stepping down.
"We’re encouraging growers to think about the candidates who will best reflect the diversity of the sector, from different crops and regions to varied backgrounds and perspectives.
"We’re looking for strong, skilled leaders who understand the pressures growers face and are passionate about shaping a positive future."
To be eligible, candidates must be active growers, or a director, shareholder, trustee or employee of an active grower.
Nominations close on June 9.
