Ohio FFA

On this Ohio Farm Bureau Podcast, we have a lot to celebrate when it comes to bringing new agriculturalists into the industry and protecting those on the farm today.

Ohio Farm Bureau Podcast · Celebrating FFA Week and Grain Bin Safety Week

 

Jessica Parrish, executive director of the Ohio FFA Foundation and Ohio FFA State Vice President at Large Luke Jennings share details about National FFA Week and Give FFA Day and how you can support the next generation of the agriculture workforce.

It is also Grain Bin Safety Week and nominations are now open for the 10th annual Nominate Your Fire Department Contest from Nationwide and Ohio Farm Bureau. Paul Stevenson, senior risk management consultant at Nationwide shares how efforts to get more life-saving equipment to rural fire departments are making a big difference.

Then, Ohio Treasurer Robert Sprague joins Ty to talk about the AgLINK program and how farmers can save on their 2023 input costs with lower interest rates on their operating loans.

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.

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.

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.

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.
