Animal Care
Where We Stand
Farm Bureau is Fighting Hard For You
  • Farm Bureau is working to ensure a coordinated effort among all agricultural organizations on animal care issues.
  • Farm Bureau is a leader in attempting to influence animal agriculture policies to ensure laws passed support the livestock and poultry industries rather than restrict them.
  • For animals to produce meat, milk and eggs, America's farmers and ranchers must take all possible steps to ensure that animals are well-cared for seven days a week, 52 weeks a year. Simply put, without healthy and content animals, farmers and ranchers would not be in business.
