OABA at a Glance

Whether you are an Ohio AgriBusiness Association member or just interested in learning more about the association, we are proud to welcome you to the OABA website.

OABA is a membership-based state trade association, originally established in the late 1800s to represent the best interests of businesses that serve Ohio agriculture. Today, our membership includes the manufacturers and wholesale/retail suppliers of plant nutrient and protection materials, the grain warehousing and marketing industry, the feed and seed industry, as well as companies providing equipment, financing, insurance, consulting, and other products and services for the agribusiness industry.

2021 Virtual Industry Conference

From trade conditions to weather to a global pandemic, those working in agriculture never know what form a disruptor may take. But they have experienced, time and time again, that disruptors become a propelling force for change. A nimble agribusiness leader will seize the momentum of disruption to realize positive impact for their business – even if others fail to see the disruptor for the opportunity it is.

At the 2021 OABA Industry Conference, agribusiness professionals will address disruptors to the industry and learn to harness the momentum for change which they present.
