Historical
note
|
|
The first county farm
bureaus in the state of Iowa were organized in Clinton and Scott
counties on September 1, 1912. The purpose of the farm bureaus was
to coordinate the agricultural activities of the county and to work
in cooperation with other local farm associations. The farm bureaus
also employed a county agent to act as leader and it was his
responsibility to conduct agricultural demonstrations, offer advice
to individual farmers, conduct agricultural meetings, and work with
rural schools. The agent was supported financially by grants from
the federal and state governments and funds raised within the
organized counties. In addition, the county farm bureaus of Iowa
cooperated directly with the United States Department of Agriculture
and the Iowa State College (University) Agricultural Extension
Department.
Within five years of the
formation of the first farm bureaus in Iowa, farmers in thirty
counties were organized. As the United States entered into World
War I, an effort was made to organize the farmers in all of Iowa's
counties. By June 1, 1918, all ninety-nine counties in Iowa were
organized, forming a total of one hundred farm bureaus
(Pottawattamie county was split into eastern and western halves).
The Iowa Farm Bureau
Federation was formed December 27, 1918, at a meeting in
Marshalltown attended by delegates from seventy-two of the state's
one hundred county farm bureau organizations. During that meeting,
the constitution and bylaws were formulated and executive officers
and members of the board of directors were selected. James R.
Howard of Marshall County was elected the first president of the
IFBF. During its first year, the IFBF lobbied state and federal
legislatures, assisted in establishing other agriculture-related
organizations, created a federation publication, and joined with
other state organizations to form the American Farm Bureau
Federation. By the end of 1919, IFBF membership surpassed 100,000
members.
From its
inception, the purpose of the IFBF was to help farm families prosper
and improve their quality of life. Over the years IFBF has
confronted a wide variety of issues ranging from global trade,
agricultural education and research, distribution and marketing of
farm goods, farm credit, rural power and communications, soil
conservation, and price support programs to name just a few.
Membership in the IFBF is open to people of any occupation and, as
of 2007, claims over 150,000 member families to be part of its
organization. |

Collection description
|
|
This
collection (1914-[ongoing]) contains records of the Iowa
Farm Bureau Federation. The collection consists of annual
reports, correspondence, publications, and meeting
materials. Important information on the formation of the
IFBF can be found in early annual reports and publications
and also in Series 10, Subject Files, where transcripts of
an interview with James R. Howard, first president of the
Iowa Farm Bureau Federation and the American Farm Bureau
Federation, can be located. Records related to early rural
leadership classes are also available in Series 5, County
and Township Organizations.
The
correspondence comprises a large portion of the collection.
Dating primarily from the 1950s through the 1980s, this
material contains incoming and outgoing letters largely from
Presidents E. Howard Hill, J. Merrill Anderson, Dean
Kleckner, Robert Joslin, and Merlin Plagge. The letters
include correspondence with members, federal and state
legislators, IFBF officers, and other agriculture-related
organizations. Minimal correspondence of other officers is
also contained in the collection.
The
collection also contains a wide variety of printed materials
and reports published by outside organizations on topics
that impacted national and state agricultural policies and
practices. These materials can be found primarily in Series
6, Public Policy Division; Series 8, Resource Material Unit;
and Series 10, Subject Files.
Other
collections available in the Special Collections Department
related to the IFBF include: Iowa Farm Bureau Federation
Women's Committee Records, MS 189; James R. Howard Papers,
MS 157; and E. Howard Hill Papers, RS 21/7/44. The Library
