Executive Summary

When trying to think of a subject for my project during the Kellogg Leadership Program, I became aware of the lack of knowledge of Federated Farmers by some of the attendees on the program with me. Although there was wide awareness of the organisation’s existence and some of the work undertaken by Federated Farmers by all on the course, there was a lack of understanding of the structure and of the networking of Federated Farmers. So I decided to do my project on the structure and history of Federated Farmers.
