NOTE FROM PRESIDENT STALLMAN Increasing consumers’ understanding of and trust in today’s diverse food system is an important priority for the American Farm Bureau Federation and American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture. One way we are achieving this goal is by increasing our level of engagement with consumers, many of whom have questions about the food they eat and how it is produced. Farm Bureau members take pride in feeding, fueling and clothing the world. Studies show that farmers and ranchers—our members—continue to be seen as trusted spokespersons in today’s consumer-driven marketplace. With your help we are building on that trust—equipping our members with tools and training to help them effectively engage with consumers, both in person and online through social media. Through sponsorship of Farm Bureau programs, you will reach key decision-makers throughout agriculture and rural America. Their influence extends from the countryside to Capitol Hill. But we need your help and hope that you’ll consider sponsoring one or more Farm Bureau programs in the coming year. Your support will enhance the mission of Farm Bureau’s more than 6 million member families, and will ensure a strong and prosperous future for American agriculture.

To learn more about connecting with Farm Bureau through partnership, sponsorship and marketing opportunities, contact Sarah Brown, director of external relations, at 202-406-3684 or at sarahb@fb.org. Thank you for your support. Sincerely,

2015 FARM BUREAU
