Wisconsin was well represented at the National Farmers Union 124th Anniversary Convention last weekend.
Several members of the Wisconsin Farmers Union made the trip to New Orleans to meet with 500 farmers and ranchers from around the nation.
Among the Wisconsin contingent was Hans Breitenmoser of Merrill, who received the Bruce Miller Membership Award.
This honor recognizes individuals within Farmers Union who display a true passion for family farming and rural America, while promoting the work of Farmers Union.
The group also played a role in the 2026 NFU policy, which WFU President Darin Von Ruden said, “starts with farmers themselves.”
Darin Von Ruden was nominated to continue on as the NFU Secretary.
The full NFU policy book will be available online soon at nfu.org.
