Nebraska Farm Bureau members will be holding their 2020 convention virtually on Tuesday. Outgoing President Steve Nelson is retiring following the meeting after leading the group for the past nine years says they’ve already developed their policy that they’ll be talking about.

He says two major issues their delegates will talk about include property taxes and broadband development.

Nelson says they’ll also review the report of their task force formed earlier this year to look at cattle markets and possibly put policy together on that.

The delegate session will convene Tuesday at 10 a.m. central time.
