The American Farm Bureau Federation (“AFBF”) provides a variety of legal resources to state Farm Bureau® organizations. Through its Legal Advocacy Program, AFBF advocates beneficial changes in the law for agriculture through coordination and communication amongst member state Farm Bureau organizations. While AFBF attorneys cannot provide legal advice, they do offer legal information on the issues important to our members.
Across the country, many state Farm Bureau organizations are engaged in legal advocacy efforts on similar issues. The AFBF Legal Advocacy Program is designed to provide a forum for AFBF and state Farm Bureau organizations to communicate about legal advocacy efforts and to develop strategies for making valuable changes in the laws affecting agriculture. Through increased coordination, and AFBF’s collective experience in public policy advocacy and coalition building, Farm Bureau organizations can focus their resources for greater effect in the legal arena.
