With the Biden Administration expected to prioritize climate change issues In 2021, Illinois Farm Bureau is preparing to do the same.
During his address to members at the virtual Illinois Farm Bureau Annual Meeting Saturday, President Richard Guebert said they will position farmers to benefit economically in climate change debates.
“Farm Bureau policy states that we will oppose any regulation that will unfairly impact US agriculture and the US economy.”
But, Guebert says their strategy is not solely defensive as they plan to play a role in creating positive change.
