This year’s annual meeting theme, “Elevating Agriculture,” showcases the spirit of grassroots members around the state who work tirelessly to represent family farmers and ranchers by elevating our state’s agriculture industry in their local communities, at the state level and across the nation through their work at every level of Farm Bureau.
By representing Farm Bureau, family agriculture and our rural communities throughout the year, OKFB members elevate agriculture in the public eye by raising awareness of the positive impact agriculture has in the lives of all Oklahomans.
During convention, members will elevate agriculture by recognizing a year’s worth of Farm Bureau achievements through awards, competitive events, giving opportunities and more.
Grassroots Business Sessions
Farm Bureau members will vote on the organization’s grassroots policy positions during the Saturday business sessions, considering resolutions submitted by county Farm Bureaus from around the state.
OKFB members will consider and vote on proposed changes to the organization’s grassroots policy submitted by Farm Bureau members from around the state. The two business sessions will feature policy discussions, reports from OKFB member-led committees, the election of delegates to serve at the 2026 American Farm Bureau Convention, and more.
The policies voted upon by delegates at the OKFB annual meeting will serve as the organization’s guiding document for the 2026 Oklahoma legislative session.
OKFB members will also elect fellow Farm Bureau members to lead the organization, including the election of the OKFB president as current OKFB President Rodd Moesel wraps up his eight years of service to the organization. Districts 3, 6, and 9 will caucus to elect district directors, and both Women’s Leadership Committee and Young Farmers & Ranchers members will caucus to select leaders for the upcoming year.
Educational Sessions
Farm Bureau members will have numerous opportunities to learn about OKFB’s programs and activities while connecting with fellow Farm Bureau leaders to learn and grow.
Breakout sessions on Saturday will feature updates from OKFB members and staff along with an update on the New World Screwworm.
New for 2025 is the first-ever Pitch the Plains competition. A collaboration between OKFB and Launch Rural OK, the event is designed to celebrate bold ideas and spark entrepreneurship in adults and youth across rural Oklahoma. Youth and adults alike will have the opportunity to pitch a new or innovative idea in front of a set of judges for the chance to win cash prizes, and the winner in the adult category will pitch to the OKFB membership during the annual meeting’s opening session on Friday, Nov. 7.
County Farm Bureau board members and county staff will have the opportunity to attend training sessions on Friday, and receptions and coffee talk sessions will allow members to visit with fellow Farm Bureau leaders and OKFB staff members to learn what the organization can do to support the future of agriculture and rural Oklahoma.
Fellowship and Awards
Farm Bureau members will once again gather to celebrate the achievements of fellow farmers and ranchers while celebrating a year of elevating agriculture.
Friday night will feature a carnival game night for Farm Bureau members in an informal setting to enjoy the evening.
The Saturday night awards banquet will recognize the efforts and achievements of Farm Bureau members, county Farm Bureaus and the Oklahoma agriculture community.
Gather Together
Our annual meeting will also provide many opportunities for Oklahoma agriculturalists to gather and connect.
OKFB’s 2025 annual meeting will feature daily general sessions with speakers and updates, a trade show with vendors from across the state, a Sunday morning breakfast and worship service, YF&R competitive events, a WLC business meeting and more.
