Supporting Your Issues

Illinois Farm Bureau (IFB) understands that a
strong agricultural industry is good for all
Illinois businesses and vice versa. That's why
IFB works towards having regulations and laws passed that help businesses grow, not burden them.

  • Property taxes
  • Capital gains taxes
  • Environmental regulations
  • Eminent domain
  • Private property rights
  • Tourism
  • And so much more

Impact on Local Economy

  • Illinois has almost 1 million farm and farm-related jobs.

  • Billions more dollars flow into the state's economy from ag-related industries, such as farm machinery manufacturing, agricultural real estate, and production and sale of value-added food products.
  • Rural Illinois benefits principally from agricultural production, while agricultural processing and manufacturing strengthen urban economies.
