Grassroots and Political Advocacy

The FB Advocacy network is designed to raise awareness among Congress and the administration about how public policies impact farmers and ranchers, consumers and the agriculture industry.

We provide state Farm Bureaus and Farm Bureau® members the skills and tools to be effective advocates and to develop and strategically leverage thought leaders for agriculture.

Just as the work of feeding our nation begins on the farm, we believe that’s where the policy shaping our industry should begin as well. That’s why AFBF’s work in Washington is driven by the policy priorities set directly by our farm and ranch family members.

This would be devastating to American agriculture.
