The Iowa Farm Bureau received seven gold star awards for 1976 achievements at the 58th American Farm Bureau Federation meeting in Honolulu. Iowa led its membership category in all-star status, with honors for turnout, commodity activities, women's program, marketing, policy development, political education, and rural crime prevention. Dean Kleckner accepted the honors from Allan Grant. Iowa also noted seven years of county membership gains and involvement in Safemark purchases. Managers prefer San Francisco, with other favorites including Atlanta and Los Angeles. New York rated least desirable except for stationed staff.

The respiratory disease complex caused most deaths, with many cattle ill before shipment and hidden among apparently healthy livestock.
