FFVA was organized from the vegetable committee of Florida Farm Bureau
in 1941. Known initially as the Florida Vegetable Committee, the
organization's primary focus was to represent vegetable growers during
wartime regulation of production quotas, rationing, labor availability
and transportation. Formally incorporated as a state organization in
1943, the association has become the leading voice of agriculture in
Florida.
