SCFB & Affiliates

SC Farm Bureau Federation
The South Carolina Farm Bureau Federation (SCFB) was chartered in 1944 by a group of farmers from around the state who were looking for a voice in the legislature, in Congress and in the corporate world. Today the organization is known as an advocate for agriculture. 

SCFB is a non-profit organization open to anyone with an interest in promoting South Carolina agriculture and farmers, and who wants to take advantage of the organization’s many valuable member benefits and services.

As the various needs arose through the years, SCFB formed affiliate companies to help meet those needs for SCFB members. The affiliate companies include – the South Carolina Farm Bureau Mutual Insurance Company, the SCFB Marketing Association, the SC Farm Bureau Products Program, and PRO-AG, Incorporated. SCFB is also very involved in Carolina Soya, LLC, a soybean crushing facility in Estill, South Carolina.
