Opinionnaires allow all Farm Bureau members to ask questions regarding local, state and national issues. Resolutions are presented at the annual meeting in July where members are present to be discussed and amended. The board approves the adopted resolutions. Board members complete candidate evaluation forms for all state legislative, congressional and state-wide races and their completed forms to the Iowa Farm Bureau committee. Board Members invite county supervisors to the monthly Farm Bureau meeting to visit about the yearly budget for the county. Group of individuals are asked to participate in the FB Response Team.
