The final day of the 2025 County Presidents’ Trip included breakfast with Zippy Duvall, president of American Farm Bureau Federation. He acknowledged that with the warmer weather, many in the room were thinking about everything they could be doing back home in their farms, but the work they are doing in Washington this week is equally valuable.

In addition to meeting with representatives on Capitol Hill during the 2025 County Presidents Trip, Ohio Farm Bureau members will also get some time with members of the Senate. Wednesday’s activities kicked off with Sen. Jon Husted and Sen. Bernie Moreno, who joined Ohio Farm Bureau members over breakfast. Following breakfast, county presidents took their messages to Congressional leaders, which included the clarity and certainty that can be gained with a new 5-year farm bill, extending current estate tax laws and the importance of trade for farmers in Ohio and across the country. The afternoon included a visit to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, where Ohio Farm Bureau members heard from USDA Chief Economist Seth Meyer and heard about the history and importance of agricultural trade. Additionally, members learned about recent trends the industry is witnessing with our trading partners around the world from Jason Hafemeister, USDA acting deputy secretary, trade and foreign affairs.
