Farm News: Walker To Address Farm BureaucommentsPosted: 12.03.2010 Hopefully the wintery weather moving into Wisconsin this weekend won't stop people from attending the 91st annual Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation convention in Wisconsin Dells this weekend. Farm Bureau officials say they're planning on Governor-Elect, Scott Walker, to address the delegates on Sunday evening after a days worth of workshops. He will share a blunt and sometimes disturbing story about the effective but often questionable public relations techniques employed by animal activist groups.
Other speakers at the Annual Meeting include Mary Kay Thatcher, American Farm Bureau’s director of public policy, who will review the November elections and explain what it all means for Wisconsin farmers; David Meihak and Chuck Reitz, agency managers for the Rural Mutual Insurance Company will discuss worker’s compensation for farming operations; and Amber Radatz, an outreach specialist for UW-Extension will discuss the progress of the state’s Discovery Farms Program.
Pam Jahnke will be covering this years WFBF convention - watch for more details, and definitely step up and say hello if you'll be there! |
