Swift County farmer Nathan Collins is a member of the Minnesota Farm Bureau board of directors. He sees the American Farm Bureau Federation Convention as an opportunity to learn and grow. “Seeing people from all walks of life ; we talk to them and understand their challenges and bring that home to our own benefit as well.” This meeting culminates with delegates finalizing AFBF policy. Collins said that work begins at the grassroots level. “Last year I was able to be a delegate and follow a resolution from a local county through the state and the national,” said Collins. “To see it up on the screen and know the members from my district put that forward, it was really cool.”
