We are so excited to celebrate 80 years of Oklahoma Farm Bureau at the OKFB Annual Meeting Nov. 11-13 at the Embassy Suites and Convention Center in Norman.
OKFB’s annual meeting serves as the largest yearly gathering of Farm Bureau members from across the state. Featuring general sessions, Young Farmers and Ranchers competitive events, a Women’s Leadership Committee conference, organizational awards, business sessions and the opportunity to connect with like-minded agriculturalists, there is something for members of all ages and interests.
This year’s theme – Production to Consumption – recognizes OKFB members’ hand in every step of food production from tilling the soil to placing agricultural products on the shelf. Our farmers and ranchers understand what it takes to feed, fuel and clothe the world.
OKFB members will work to improve agriculture and the rural way of life through policy development, engaging speakers, and leadership and personal growth sessions.
Find all of the details below, including the up-to-date schedule.
