On August 19 the Minnesota Farm Bureau announced its endorsement of Dave Kruse in the Minnesota House district 23B race, as the candidate who most strongly supports Farm Bureau policies. House district 23B includes the city of Mankato.
The Farm Bureau is a non-partisan, national farm-based organization. Minnesota Farm Bureau endorses both individual Republicans and Democrats based on their support for Farm Bureau policies. “Sustainability is directly tied to profitability,” says MFBF President Kevin Paap, “In order for agriculture to remain a vital part of our state and nation’s economy, Farm Bureau will advocate for policies that positively impact farm and ranch profitability.”
