The Madera County Farm Bureau was formally established in 1914 as a major insurance provider for people in all industries, not just for agricultural purposes. Its mission was to provide a reasonable insurance base for peoples seeking economic opportunity in California. Most farm bureaus were originally created as insurance cooperatives, later developing the advocacy roles that commonly governs the bureaus today.
