Other Part III, Line 4a - Policy Development - A priority of our organization is policy development and policy implementation that is relevant to our members and the agriculture community. During the year, members are asked to surface ideas important to them, business, and/or their rural community. They are also asked to complete a survey, sharing feedback on the topics that were submitted. These ideas are considered for future organizational policy. A committee reviews the information that is submitted, and all Farm Bureau members are invited to join in on the process further by discussing the topics and information with the committee at the Policy Development Meeting. The Voting Delegate representing the organization shares the policies and topics put together by their county at the state-wide policy development conference. State adopted policies are lobbied for with intent to be implemented as soon as possible. National adopted policies are presented at the American Farm Bureau Annual Meeting by the Iowa Voting Delegates. Members also meet with county personnel (Supervisors, Engineer, etc.) throughout the year to stay abreast of the issues the county is facing and encourage the elected officials to keep agriculture at front of mind when they are making decisions affecting our rural community. Other Part III, Line 4b - Membership - The County Farm Bureau operates a membership program that provides members with access to educational resources, industry updates, and opportunities for professional engagement. During the year, the County Farm Bureau served members, offering a structured platform for networking, training, and participation in mission aligned initiatives. Membership benefits included access to educational workshops, print and digital publications, volunteer opportunities, and member only events, all designed to support the professional growth and community involvement of participants. Membership revenue helps support the Organizations broader mission by funding outreach efforts, program development, and operational capacity. The membership program continues to promote engagement, strengthen community connections, and expand awareness of the Organizations activities.
