The NFU-O is governed by a Board of Directors, elected by the members, to speak on behalf of its members. The NFU-O Board is elected at our Annual General Meeting (AGM) in March.
The NFU-O is organized into Locals, representing the members in particular geographic areas in Ontario. Each Local has its own Executive, elected at their AGM. Locals carry out the work of the NFU-O and respond to the needs, interests and concerns of the membership in their area.
The NFU-O is affiliated with the National Farmers Union (NFU), which is also governed by an elected Board of Directors composed of farmers from coast to coast. The NFU-O has representatives who sit on the NFU board to represent the interests of Ontario farm members at the federal level.
