The Collegiate Farm Bureau chapter at Northeastern Oklahoma A&M College was honored with the first ever Oklahoma Farm Bureau Young Farmers and Ranchers Moesel Award on Friday, Nov. 10 during the organization’s 82nd annual meeting in Oklahoma City.
The Moesel Award recognizes the top Collegiate Farm Bureau chapter that works to improve their local chapter while strengthening the Farm Bureau organization.
NEO Collegiate Farm Bureau hosted a number of activities for their members during the 2022-2023 school year, including several commodity tours, where members toured local agricultural enterprises from traditional livestock and grain operations to coffee shops and Christmas tree farms.
The NEO chapter also packed care packages for local farmers in celebration of Farmer Appreciation Day, read agriculture books to elementary students, hosted a mock discussion meet and more.
The Oklahoma Farm Bureau Annual Meeting is the organization’s largest gathering of farmers and ranchers every year. At the event, members vote on grassroots policy, elect leaders and award outstanding individuals. OKFB has a presence in all 77 Oklahoma counties and serves as the voice of agriculture and the rural way of life. To learn more, visit okfarmbureau.org.
