Applications for the Oklahoma Farm Bureau Young Farmers & Ranchers Achievement Award and Excellence in Agriculture Award are now open through Wednesday, Oct. 15.
The YF&R Achievement Award recognizes YF&R members who have excelled in their farm or ranch, and have taken an active role in Farm Bureau programs and activities. Participants are involved in production agriculture with a majority of their income subject to normal production risks.
The YF&R Excellence in Agriculture Award recognizes YF&R members who have a passion for agriculture, but who do not earn a majority of their income from an owned agriculture enterprise.
Award winners will be announced at the 2025 OKFB Annual Meeting in Oklahoma City in November. Winners will compete at the 2027 American Farm Bureau convention, representing Oklahoma in the national YF&R competitive events.
Applicants for both the achievement and excellence awards must be no older than 35 by Jan. 1, 2027.
The electronic application forms can be found on the applications center page of OKFB’s website. Learn more about the YF&R awards on AFBF’s website at fb.org/yfr.
