Disruptions from the COVID-19 pandemic and goals to move forward were highlighted in Illinois Farm Bureau President Richard Guebert’s annual address.
During the virtual IFB Annual Meeting Saturday Guebert said they will prioritize advocating for farmers’ roles in the food supply chain in 2021.
“The dramatic shock to the food supply this past spring has raised questions about the resiliency of the US food system. Industry concentration is under a microscope.”
Guebert says this has created questions of uncertainty for farmers as well.
