NDFB leads the future of agriculture

NDFB leads the future of agriculture


By Scout Nelson

The 82nd Annual Meeting of the North Dakota Farm Bureau (NDFB) took place on November 22-23 at the Bismarck Hotel and Convention Center, bringing together farmers, ranchers, and agricultural advocates to discuss the future of agriculture in the state.

NDFB President Daryl Lies kicked off the event with an inspiring message about the organization’s dedication to advocacy, emphasizing its grassroots approach. This process allows members to present concerns and ideas, which are then thoroughly debated and refined into official policies.

“Our ability to address important issues comes from a robust grassroots policy process,” said Lies. “And the premier agricultural organization for this is NDFB!”

“With a foundation of firm philosophical beliefs rooted in our God-given freedoms and rights, we can celebrate and respect independent thought while coming together through our great organization to achieve common goals,” said Lies.

The Annual Meeting serves as a pivotal event for the organization, offering a platform to address key issues facing agriculture. Through rigorous discussions that start at the county level, attendees help shape the policies that guide NDFB’s efforts to support farmers, ranchers, and rural communities.

As NDFB’s president since 2015, Lies has championed the organization’s mission of preserving agricultural traditions and fostering progress. A farmer and livestock producer from Douglas, North Dakota, he brings firsthand experience to his leadership.

The meeting will conclude with an evening banquet featuring guest speaker John Kriesel. With more than 28,000 member families and 50 county Farm Bureaus, NDFB remains the leading agricultural advocacy group in North Dakota, dedicated to promoting and protecting the state’s farming and ranching communities.
