Training Specialist & Application Support

Who We Are: At Iowa Farm Bureau Federation (IFBF), we are committed to the people, progress, and pride of Iowa. IFBF is Iowa’s largest farm organization, established in 1918. We remain a statewide, non-profit grassroots farm organization dedicated to our mission of creating a vibrant future for agriculture, farm families, and their communities. We work for family farmers in areas critical to the success of their farm enterprises, from representing their public policy interests at the local, state, and national levels, to enhancing market opportunities and providing cutting-edge information to enhance their decision making abilities. In addition to working for farmers, we are strengthening rural communities, investing in youth and education, and promoting quality healthcare - serving Iowans in all walks of life.
