Kayla Scott

Kayla Scott of Mineral City has been named organization director for Ohio Farm Bureau and will serve members in Carroll, Harrison, Jefferson and Tuscarawas counties. In this role, she will work with the county Farm Bureaus to address issues important to members and their communities.

Scott grew up raising and showing pigs, dairy cattle, and sheep with her family. She spent her time traveling across the country to show livestock as well as participating in Tuscarawas County 4-H, where she was a member for 10 years. 

She has worked at a commercial swine barn, local feed store in eastern Ohio, and two College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences research labs at The Ohio State University. This variety of experiences has provided her with a well-rounded background of the agriculture industry, especially the livestock, research, and business sectors. 

Scott has received multiple degrees from The Ohio State University, including associate’s and bachelor’s degrees in agriculture, and she will earn her master of science degree this summer. During her tenure with the university, Scott completed a study abroad in the United Kingdom, competed on the meat evaluation team, and conducted a variety of statewide research and Extension projects.

Ohio Farm Bureau’s mission is working together for Ohio farmers to advance agriculture and strengthen our communities. Learn more at ohiofarmbureau.org.

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.
