Resolutions debated as Haldeman to lead Wisconsin Farm Bureau again
Delegates at the 68th Wisconsin Farm Bureau Federation meeting approved Don Haldeman of Norwalk as president of the 47,000 member group and spent a full day revising resolutions likely to shape 1988 national policy. They advised the board on restoring funds for the Queen contest and Young Farmer seminars, and recommended dissolving the Farm Bureau Marketing Association. The group supported tax shifts toward sales and income taxes, funding for public education, consolidating federal milk orders, and allowing Class 1 milk concentration for transport and reconstitution. They opposed limiting Native American tribal jurisdiction over non Indian lands but suggested treaty-rights negotiations be considered. They urged tax and depreciation changes to enhance the Wisconsin Farmland Preservation program.
