AFBF Commends Bednarski Nomination to Farm Credit Board

American Farm Bureau Federation President Zippy Duvall today commended the White House nomination of Michigan Farm Bureau leader and farmer Carl Bednarski to serve on the Farm Credit Administration Board.

"We congratulate Carl on his nomination to the Farm Credit Administration Board. He is well-qualified to serve in this position, having capably led the team at Michigan Farm Bureau for a decade and having also served on the AFBF board of directors for nearly nine years, including roles on our Executive, Audit and Finance Committees.

"Carl's strong leadership abilities and knowledge of the financial world will serve Farm Credit well. Equally important, as a lifelong farmer, Carl will bring a passion for ensuring farmers continue to be well-served by the Farm Credit Administration.

"Ensuring a strong Farm Credit System is more important than ever as farmers and ranchers continue to face a multiyear downturn in the farm economy. We look forward to Carl's approval by the Senate."
