Replacement To Be Picked As Leader Of State’s Largest Ag Group Retires From Post

Statewide Iowa — After ten years, Iowa Farm Bureau president Craig Hill is stepping down as head of the state’s largest agricultural organization.

Hill’s successor will be chosen as Farm Bureau members meet in Des Moines starting Tuesday for their annual state conference. Matt Schuiteman of Sioux County, district director for northwest Iowa, says three names will be on the ballot.

Schuiteman says it may take more than one vote to determine the next Iowa Farm Bureau president.

Schuiteman says Farm Bureau members won’t be establishing any new planks in the platform during the conference.

This year’s theme for the state conference is “Our Farms, Our Future.”
