Description

In this episode of New York Farm Bureau News Bytes, we sit down with Renée St. Jacques, our acting director of public policy, to talk about the 2025 legislative session and what it means for farmers across the state.

Recorded on the shores of Seneca Lake in Geneva, NY, our conversation covers major wins for agriculture in the state budget, including extensions of farm tax credits and funding for farmworker housing, as well as bills Farm Bureau worked to oppose. Renée also explains how NYFB’s grassroots policy process works, from ideas shared at county meetings to legislative action, and what issues are on the horizon for next year.

This episode offers an inside look at how New York Farm Bureau advocates for farms of every size and commodity, ensuring agriculture remains strong and diverse across the state.
