"A
Journey Through Time" Peanut Print now available
A thousand words will only begin to describe
the history and modern times depicted in this colorful print commissioned
by the Southern Peanut Farmers Federation (SPFF) and painted by artist
Jack Deloney. The SPFF consists of the Alabama Peanut Producers Association,
the Florida Peanut Producers Association, the Georgia Peanut Commission
and the Mississippi Peanut Growers Association. |

Formed in 1998, SPFF was
established to allow Southeastern peanut producers to speak with
a unified voice. Often, particularly in Washington, state representatives
are asked the position of other southeastern states on policy issues.
In order to avoid follow-up from each state, a position by the SPFF
has become a position of all four states. It has, also become an
umbrella for other activities and projects, besides promotion, that
the three organizations undertake collectively.
SPFF is comprised of the Alabama Peanut Producers Association, the
Florida Peanut Producers Association and the Georgia Peanut Commission.
These are the respective "check-off" organizations in each
state. The SPFF board consist of 8 members comprised of the chief
elected officer and the executive director of each organization.
Action requires unanimous agreement.
Activities currently coordinated by the Federation include:
       Southern Peanut Growers Conference
       Syngenta Peanut Leadership Program
       Congressional Member and Staff Relations Programs
       Southeastern Peanut Research Initiative
