Pohlman named to Ohio Farm Bureau Health Benefits Plan Board of Trustees
Craig Pohlman of Venedocia was recently named to the seven-member Ohio Farm Bureau Health Benefits Plan Board of Trustees.
Read MoreEmily Warnimont of Findlay recently graduated from Ohio Farm Bureau’s AgriPOWER Class XII. The elite leadership program was started in 2008 to help agricultural advocates gain influence over public policy issues that impact their businesses and communities.
Warnimont is the director of industry relations for Trans Ova Genetics, coordinating and creating the company’s social, digital media and event marketing efforts. She is a member of the Hancock County Farm Bureau, currently serving on the board of trustees. Warnimont is also a member of the Ohio Cattlemen’s Association and American Simmental Association.
Over the course of a year, Class XII participants learned from experts on how to become better leaders and advocates for the agricultural industry, including spokesperson and media training, etiquette training, social networking and communications. They learned about public policy matters important to their local communities, as well as the state, nation and world. They visited Washington, D.C. where they learned about national and global issues, and they visited diverse agricultural operations in California so they could better understand the differences and similarities in agriculture from state to state.
Partnering with Ohio Farm Bureau on AgriPOWER Class XII were Farm Credit Mid-America, Ohio Farm Bureau Foundation, Ohio Corn and Wheat, Ohio Pork Council, Ohio Soybean Council, Stark County Farm Bureau, Deerfield Ag Services and Trans Ova Genetics.
