1916 – Farmers form the Illinois Agricultural Association (IAA), which is commonly known as Illinois Farm Bureau (IFB).
1925 – IFB organizes the Farmers Mutual Reinsurance Company to help spread the risk of insuring farm buildings for fire. This marks the start of offering insurance as a benefit to IFB members.
Trying to find history of The Illinois farm supply plant in Tuscola built around 1954-1955 my dad Ed CAUSEY was the plant manager. It was one of the first pellitized fertilizer plants in the USA.
We lived in Arthur, Ill 1954-1959.
