Student Memberships*

The New York Farm Bureau Young Farmers & Ranchers (YF&R) program has been working to develop future agricultural leaders by becoming more involved with youth in FFA, 4-H and at agricultural colleges.  There are Collegiate Chapters of New York Farm Bureau at Cornell University and SUNY Cobleskill.  By involving these agricultural youth, the Young Farmers and Ranchers Program can foster new leaders for not only their program and New York Farm Bureau, but for the agricultural industry as a whole.

Student memberships are available for members who are between the ages of 16-21.

4-H and FFA members who are high school juniors and seniors and collegiate students with an agricultural major are eligible for a complimentary NYFB student membership.
