2024 Agribusiness in Virginia Survey

The Virginia Agribusiness Council is collecting data needed for the next legislative session. We are looking to provide decision-makers with information on the health of the agricultural and forestry business here in the Commonwealth of Virginia. These nine questions will help our allies and staff promote and protect the agribusiness community. These results are anonymous and will be only be shared in an aggregated form.

Please send questions and comments to Cliff Williamson at cliff@va-agribusiness.org.

The Survey can be completed here

How We Will Use This

We will collect this information after 30 days and draft a report for the use of the Board of Directors and our Legislative team to formulate our 2025 General Assembly strategy. We will then use this information throughout the GA Session to highlight the relevance of the legislation we champion or oppose throughout the 2025 Session. VAC staff will also take the recommendations provided to ensure our members are continuing to receive the services expected of their support.
