Members, elected officials, and community leaders gathered to discuss property tax reform, land use regulations, and public safety.
The Clermont County Farm Bureau held its 2026 Policy Development Meeting Feb. 5, 2026 to identify and discuss key issues affecting the local community and the agricultural industry. The event was attended by Farm Bureau members, elected officials, and community leaders. This meeting is a fundamental component of Ohio Farm Bureau’s grassroots efforts, a process where members directly influence the organization’s legislative priorities and internal policies by proposing solutions to current challenges.
A primary focus of the discussion was property tax reform in Ohio and its impact on local landowners. Participants also addressed various land use and regulatory issues, including the development of data centers, federal programming and rural townships’ growth plans.
The meeting also covered broader community concerns, including the drug epidemic, local crime, and the rise of thefts. By addressing these public health and safety issues alongside agricultural policy, Farm Bureau aims to represent the comprehensive interests of its members. The policy recommendations drafted during this session will be reviewed at the county level before moving forward for consideration in the statewide Ohio Farm Bureau policy platform.
The Southern Ohio Ag Showcase was designed to provide agriculturalists with industry updates and networking opportunities within the southern Ohio region.
