State treasurer meets with the community
Sprague met with community leaders and farmers to discuss current issues.
State Treasurer Robert Sprague met with several county and community leaders in Caldwell on March 8 at the fairgrounds.
While there he spoke of the concerns with the supply chain issues and rising costs. He listened as area farmers and producers shared concerns of the costs facing farmers as they plan their spring farming enterprises. Treasurer Sprague also discussed some changes in the Linked Deposit Program handled by his office and how those could be helpful to local producers.
If it wasn't for Farm Bureau, I personally, along with many others, would not have had the opportunity to meet with our representatives face to face in Washington, D.C.
Through its policies it brings together people in the agricultural community and invests in building vibrant communities that support agriculture.
If you have issues with local planning or have legal questions, someone at the Farm Bureau has the answer for you, or they’ll connect you with someone who does.
As a member of Farm Bureau, I am glad that this organization takes action when necessary to protect and advance agriculture.
Farm Bureau is an incredible organization that has given me countless professional development opportunities in addition to advocating for all sizes and types of farmers.
We go to a lot of Farm Bureau events, and there’s a lot of camaraderie built because you’re meeting with people who have similar interests and goals.
