Been a member for 49 years and when I retired I became a Board Director 5 years ago and am now serving my second year as Caldwell Co. President. If it was not for Farm Bureau and all of the other farm organization representing farmers, ranchers and landowners in the State and National level we would not have any one to speak for us, their are very few Representatives or Senators that have a knowledge of Agirculture , these organizations meet with our lawmakers to help educate them of the needs of farmers. The majority of the nation is unaware of where their food comes from and we as an oragazition work with youth to help get the message out, also the majority of the people think Farm Bureau is just an Insurance Co. they are not aware of what we do to represent all landowners. So I encourage all landowners to check into one of your local farm organazition that would best serve you and join.
