Bill > SR117

This resolution recognizes February 11, 2025, as Georgia Farm Bureau Federation Day at the state capitol, honoring an agricultural organization founded in 1937 that has grown to become a significant advocate for farmers in Georgia. The Georgia Farm Bureau Federation has expanded from its origins in northwest Georgia to include 158 county chapters with over 235,000 members, and has diversified its services to include insurance, advocacy, and banking. The resolution highlights the organization's long-standing commitment to supporting Georgia's agricultural community and acknowledges its leadership under President Tom McCall. The Senate Agriculture and Consumer Affairs Committee formally recognizes the federation's contributions to agriculture, and the resolution instructs the Secretary of the Senate to provide an official copy of the resolution to the Georgia Farm Bureau Federation, symbolically celebrating its important role in the state's agricultural ecosystem.
