Illinois Farm Bureau realizes the financial barriers that veterinary students face. The IVET Program helps offset the high cost of veterinary education while encouraging the next generation of veterinary professionals to work in Illinois.
As the weather continues to warm up, farmers and their equipment will be out in the fields. They'll also be on the road moving from farm to field. We all need to pay attention on rural roads to stay safe this spring.
