Gallia County Farm Bureau

Gallia County Farm Bureau hosted the 4th annual Spring Member Only Soil Testing event March 25 -29 in conjunction with the Gallia SWCD Office.

For the last six years, Gallia County Farm Bureau has been working with the Gallia County Soil & Water District to facilitate soil testing within Gallia County. Members had the opportunity to collect four soil samples and deliver them to the SWCD office between March 25-29 during normal business hours. Farm Bureau memberships are checked to be current and the samples are recorded by the SWCD. At the end of the week, the samples are sent off to the lab to get the necessary results. Once the results are completed, the members will receive the results via email or mail. These results help them to determine what they may or may not need to add on their land this year before planting. 

This spring, 65 different soil samples from Gallia County were brought to SWCD.

This is a project that we feel adds value to our membership within the county. The program is offered for a week in the spring and a week in the fall. 

Interested in becoming a member to gain this awesome opportunity? Call the office at 740-201-2739 or join at ofbf.org/join.

The mission of Ohio Farm Bureau is working together for Ohio farmers to advance agriculture and strengthen our communities.   

Ohio Farm Bureau Health Benefits Plan
The plan we are on is great. It’s comparable to my previous job's plan, and we are a sole proprietor.

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.

Farm Bureau is what really got the word out. It’s been one of their goals to get this done.

Farm Bureau involvement
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.
