BUCKINGHAM — Buckingham Farmer Ivan “Chip” Davis Jr. recently represented members of the county’s Farm Bureau at the Virginia Farm Bureau Federation’s (VFBF) annual resolutions committee meeting on Nov. 5 in Richmond.

According to a news release from the Buckingham Farm Bureau, the meeting is one of the organization’s most important yearly functions.

“Farmers are very concerned about funding for conservation practices required to meet water quality commitments,” Davis, the Buckingham Farm Bureau president said, “as well as funding for the state’s weights and measures program; defending state water control of the current biosolids program and regulations and having farmer representation on elected soil and water conservation district boards.”

Policies developed during the resolutions meeting will be considered for official VFBF policy during the organization’s annual convention Dec. 1-3 in Norfolk.

Buckingham County Farm Bureau is one of the 88 county Farm Bureaus in the VFBF.
