Grain growers currently form the largest contingent among us, but most of us also raise beef and some of us have pork, chicken, dairy and horticultural operations. Our Members are also members in many other farm organizations, from all perspectives, commodity groups and breed associations. It is important to put aside the narrow and incorrect idea that Farmers of North America is a “volume buying
group” as it has sometimes been called. While negotiating price based on volume is part of what we do, it is not the “biggest” thing we do and it is not the primary reason to get involved with Farmers of North America. In fact, becoming part of the farm business alliance is not like “joining” any other organization or business. Instead of “joining” you are actually “employing” a management team that negotiates for farm inputs, encourages new competitive products to be developed, and creates opportunities for you to have an ownership stake in the supply chain for which you are already paying.
