Farmers Union promotes rural economic and cooperative development by supporting existing agricultural co-ops and helping form new farmer co-ops and other rural businesses.
The primary objective is to help family farmers and ranchers add value to the food, fiber and energy they produce. NFU assists producers to retain ownership of their commodity further into the processing channel and enhance market returns on their investment.
By working together with other persons and groups, Farmers Union helps family farmers and ranchers advance their farm, ranch, co-op and community enterprises.
Kansas Farmers Union is involved with Association of Cooperative Educators and the College Conference on Cooperatives. If you are interested in learning more about the cooperative way of doing business, contact any Farmers Union staff member.
