Policy and Positions

Montana Farmers Union is the oldest and largest statewide grassroots organization that advocates for family farmers, ranchers, and rural communities. The MFU policy guides the work of our government affairs team and membership advocacy on state and federal legislative issues. From the State Legislature to the D.C. Fly-in, the policy book guides our members in having the critical conversations with our elected officials and decision makers.

MFU Producer members vote on the policy book and changes put forth by the resolutions committee each year at the Annual Convention. The Resolutions committee is a grassroots committee of MFU members, staff, and board who work through the policy book each year, take resolutions from MFU members and locals, all in preparation for the annual convention. The policy book includes the topline legislative priorities at the front, along with the Special Orders of Business that are set each year at Convention. If you are a current MFU member and are interested in serving on the Resolutions Committee, or any other grassroots committee, please email office@montanafarmersunion.com
