American Farm Bureau Market Intel

The American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) is the largest general farm organization in the United States, founded in 1919. It represents approximately 2 million farms and nearly 3,000 county farm bureaus, providing a unified voice for farmers and ranchers in shaping agricultural policy at the national level.

AFBF focuses on advocacy and lobbying, working with Congress and federal agencies on issues such as market access, labor, and regulatory policies affecting agriculture. The organization develops policies that promote agricultural profitability and sustainability while supporting rural community vitality. Through its network of state and county farm bureaus, AFBF offers resources, education, and insurance services to its members. It also engages in public outreach to educate about farming issues and advocate for the interests of American agriculture.
