Protecting and Preserving Our Rural Roots

Our agricultural heritage is at the foundation of Ohio’s success. From 1 million jobs that depend on Ohio agriculture to communities built on the history of hard work, honesty and the value of a handshake, it’s our mission to ensure that the values of rural Ohio never disappear.

Ensuring Farmland and Open Space Remain a part of the Ohio Landscape

As guardians of the land and Ohio’s natural resources, we value clean water, clean air and a healthy environment where we can enjoy nature all around us.

Open space protects our drinking water and air quality while offering critical wildlife habitat.

We’re just so thankful for the Farm Bureau and the foundation for helping put this together. And of course, the Boyert family for the vision they had with this grant. It’s jumping us forward 10 years. It’s unbelievable.

Giving farmers a voice
The issue of property taxation remains as one of the biggest challenges our members face today. Ensuring agricultural property is valued for its agricultural potential and not development is critical to the continued success of Ohio agriculture.

Select Partner Program
Through the Select Partner program, we became educated in farm insurance and weren't just selling policies. It became more and more clear why farmers need an advocate like Ohio Farm Bureau.

Advocacy
So many of the issues that OFBF and its members are advocating for are important to all Ohioans. I look at OFBF as an agricultural watchdog advocating for farmers and rural communities across Ohio.
