Illinois Farm Bureau

Illinois Farm Bureau (IFB) planted its roots as the Illinois Agricultural Association (IAA) in DeKalb, Illinois, in 1912 and became the Illinois Farm Bureau at the state level in 1916. More than a century later, we remain a grassroots membership organization dedicated to supporting farms, food and families across Illinois. IFB is a member of the American Farm Bureau Federation® (AFBF), organized in 1919 and recognized as the unified national voice of agriculture. Today, IFB is a proud leader in Illinois’ largest industry and gives members an advantage through impactful advocacy, trusted information and meaningful development. View More
