Victorian Farmers Federation - LET's KEEP MOVING FORWARD

President Re-election Nomination - 2022

ENGAGED MEMBERSHIP | STRONG ADVOCACY | FUTURE-PROOFING THE VFF


Emma has officially nominated to continue her Presidency of the Victorian Farmer’s Federation (VFF) for a second term. 


As President,  she pledged upon her first election that she would serve the VFF by being a strong, passionate advocate for Victorian Farmers and to strive each day to modernise the organisation.  


There's been many great wins, however there’s more work to be done. To be a strong, respected and influential organisation the VFF must keep moving forward with strong leadership.


We have a great opportunity to finish what we started even stronger, and that’s why she's asking for your vote to serve you as President for another term.

Emma's focus as continuing VFF President for the next two years will be:

ENGAGED MEMBERSHIP

  • We've halted the membership decline: In my time as president we have halted the membership decline for the first time in more than a decade. For 2 years we have held steady, and now we are ready to grow!
  • New membership strategy: Introducing a new membership strategy that is fair for all farmers, with services and benefits that outweigh the cost of membership. Naturally this will be done in consultation with members.


FUTURE-PROOFING THE VFF

  • More young farmers engaged in the VFF: She's delighted we have younger farmers contributing to the VFF leadership and being engaged with the organisation. This future proofs our organisation and makes us relevant to the next generation
  • Measure and managing VFF performance: We have put in place processes to measure and manage our performance in key areas, updating systems and streamlining governance.


STRONG ADVOCACY

  • Continue the strong advocacy: She will continue to represent your right to run a strong, profitable and sustainable farm business, and be your voice to government, industry and the community.
  • Media advocate: She speaks on your behalf to the media with conviction and authenticity (over 1,000 media engagements in the last 12 months ). She will continue her dedication to championing the needs and promoting the industry.


The question on everyone's lips now is: Where does the State Government’s re-election leave us farmers?

When the government was re-elected, she considered the immediate future of advocacy. We must be in fierce opposition to regressive policies that continue to disadvantage farmers and regional communities. We must be up front and centre of every politician and policy-makers mind when they make decisions. Food security must be the foundation of the governments attitudes and actions. We need a strong VFF for farmers and for our community.


If re-elected, she will continue to be your strong voice that creates change for the better for you, the VFF and the industry.


Emma wants to make sure every farmer’s voice continues to be heard, and with the opportunity of a profitable future farming this great land. She looks forward to your vote and continued support in the coming two years. A


VFF members can submit their vote for Emma  as President from Monday 14 November 2022.


Voting closes  COB 5pm Tuesday 13 December 2022
