    Pike County Commissioners proclaim March 17-23 National Ag Week

    Pike County Commissioners proclaim March 17-23 National Ag Week

    The Pike County Commissioners recently signed a proclamation declaring March 17-23, 2024 as National Agriculture Week. Pike County Farm Bureau presented each commissioner with a basket filled with locally grown and produced items as well as information regarding National Ag Week. American agriculture plays a crucial role in strengthening our economy and in providing food for people, and it is our nation’s largest employer. Don’t forget to thank a farmer!

    New and beginning farmers
    My first recommendation in your journey is to start out with a local farming friend or mentor along with joining an organization like Ohio Farm Bureau.

    Growing Tomorrow Grant
    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.

    Youth pathways in Farm Bureau
    It wasn’t until I joined the Wilmington College Collegiate Farm Bureau that I truly saw how my passion could translate into leadership, advocacy and a career.

    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.
