Abstract

Extension education programs continue to intersect stakeholders’ interests with the U.S. Farm Bill. The purpose of this study was to identify organizational communication methods and their relationship to Texas agricultural and natural resource organization board members’ perceptions of the 2002 Farm Bill. Respondents believed their organizations met their primary farm bill objectives. A significant positive relationship existed between perceived organizational communication methods and factors influencing the 2002 Farm Bill. Because of their local contact base, extension educators should study other organizations and the public’s interest in future farm bills to determine what provisions, issues, or programs are most needed to benefit society.
