Join us for Oklahoma Farm Bureau Leadership Week Feb. 1-5 to get engaged in the legislative process in 2021!
In consideration of our members’ health and safety, OKFB will host Leadership Week on all of our online platforms in place of an in-person Leadership Conference.
Members will have a chance to hear from state and national leaders about agricultural and rural issues through various videos to be released during the week.
The videos will be posted to our social media channels and website for members to view at their own convenience. Whether in the office or on the tractor, you can learn more about pressing issues.
OKFB will also provide legislative materials with more information about OKFB’s priority issues, ways to get involved at the state Capitol and much more.
Tune in as we kick off the 2021 state Legislative session.

Our priority issues
Our grassroots membership guides the organization’s vision and direction, especially when choosing priority issues. Our members from all 77 counties gather resolutions to be presented to the full delegate body of the organization. Then, these resolutions become the organization’s priority issues for the legislative session. From landowner advocacy to livestock and crop production, many issues are covered.
