What's this?Action Teams

The success of Ohio Farm Bureau is due in large part to the success county Farm Bureaus achieve in their local communities. County Farm Bureau Action Teams are groups of Farm Bureau members who come together each year to set the agenda regarding the issues, events and projects their respective Farm Bureau deems important and worthy of attention.
Counties operate with four action teams: Organization, Communications, Public Policy and Food and Animal Issues. An action leader leads each team, with help from three to five participants who have special interest in team activities or special skills to offer.
It is up to each county's board of trustees to check on the level of progress being made toward the county's stated goals for the year. Ohio Farm Bureau offers an achievement award program where counties show their program results. Counties compete against other counties of similar membership size to determine the best of the best.
Awards criteria include member involvement, communications, planning and results.
Here are last year's Achievement Award entries.
