Gallia County Farm Bureau and the Gallia County Soil and Water Conservation District have partnered to take part in the 2018 Water Quality Grant opportunity through the Ohio Farm Bureau. With this grant they will purchase a new 7 foot no-till drill to use in the county and other surrounding counties, to help with soil conservation practices.
This drill can be leased by the public and Farm Bureau members may lease the drill at a discounted rate. Please contact the Gallia County SWCD for more information: (740) 446-6173 and ask for Nick Mills.

To grow a network and gain perspective and knowledge in the industry through personal and professional development has been invaluable. Every day I learn and grow.
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.
Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.
I could not have done it without the resources I have found through Farm Bureau.
Because we are younger farmers just starting out, Farm Bureau has a lot of good opportunities and resources to help us grow in the future.
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.
