Our Commitment
Illinois Farm Bureau® is a not-for-profit organization that knows agriculture is the cornerstone of our strong nation. We believe that misconceptions about agriculture can harm the industry… and in the case of food prices, they can cause great damage to our country as a whole. That’s why we have created this website. We hope that by spreading the truth (albeit a complicated truth), we can help keep our country on the right track… the track of food and energy independence.

Illinois Farm Bureau (IFB®) is a membership organization controlled by farmers who join IFB through their county Farm Bureau. IFB’s legal name is the Illinois Agricultural Association, which was founded in 1916 by a group of farmers who met at the University of Illinois to discuss the need for education, better information, and more effective farming practices. Today, IFB represents two out of three Illinois farmers. Illinois Farm Bureau® programs and services are available only to Farm Bureau® members within Illinois.

Illinois Farm Bureau is a member of the American Farm Bureau Federation®, a national organization of farmers and ranchers including Farm Bureaus in all 50 states and Puerto Rico, and is responsible for Farm Bureau® membership and programs within Illinois. FARM BUREAU® and FB® are registered service marks owned by the American Farm Bureau Federation. More information regarding the American Farm Bureau Federation can be found at www.fb.org.
