The important business of the American Farm Bureau Federation annual meeting has been underway today as voting delegates have been considering hundreds of resolutions for the organization’s policy priorities in 2012.
Most of the morning session was taken up with resolutions ranging from opposition to the Renewable Fuels Standard (which was defeated) to strongly urging Congress to balance the budget, which was approved. The afternoon session is considering the meatier issues of farm bill policy proposals.
AFBF president Bob Stallman will meet with the media after it’s all over to report on just what the delegates decided for the 2012 marching orders of the nation’s largest general farm organization.
