The Capital Ag Conference (CAC) marked the commencement of the annual policy review and development process, with the Commodity Advisory Committee meetings serving as the bookends of the conference. CAC members and general Farm Bureau members were engaged during our Legislative Day, focused on legislative activity and connecting with key state policymakers. California Farm Bureau worked on behalf of farmers and ranchers to secure policies favorable to their operations, providing members with opportunities to converse with legislators directly. They aimed to illustrate to policymakers the significance of Farm Bureau members' contributions to California's economy and overall well-being.
