South Dakota Farmers Union is a non-profit advocacy organization of small farmers, ranchers, and rural communities across the state. The Farmers Union was formed in 1917 and promotes education, cooperation, and legislation and local state, and national levels. The records are comprised of correspondence, meeting minutes, publications, scrapbooks, photographs, oral history interviews, audio-visual materials, and the records of local unions. Historical Note

Newspaperman Isaac Newton Gresham founded the Farmers Educational and Cooperative Union at Point, Texas in 1902. The Union was organized to protect and promote the interests of family farmers. The Union became a national organization in 1905.

The Farmers Union came to South Dakota about 1914. Former members of the Nebraska Farmers Union who moved to South Dakota to farm introduced the organization. Farmer’s Union officials did much of the early work in organizing from Nebraska.

The Farmers Union of South Dakota was organized into a state unit at Mitchell on March 16, 1917. This was the first state convention to be held in South Dakota. There were fourteen counties represented at the convention by 268 delegates. By this time, there were 134 locals in South Dakota.

The educational program of the South Dakota Farmers Union has been a vital part of the state organization. The Union pioneered many activities in education that other state units adopted. One of the important functions of the early Union was the collective purchasing of supplies such as flour, coal, twine, etc.

Arrangement

This collection is arranged into series:

• Audio-Visual • Collected material • Cooperative Legacy Project • General • Local Unions • Photographs • Publications

Items are arranged alphabetically within each series.

Contents Note

The records are comprised of correspondence, meeting minutes, publications, scrapbooks, photographs, oral history interviews, audio-visual materials, and the records of local unions.

AUDIO-VISUAL.

The Audio-visual material is composed of 13 audiocassettes, 156 open reel tapes, 6 wire recordings, and 34 16mm motion picture films. The audio recordings span form 1948 to 1992 and include both state and national conventions, speeches, radio programs, and advertisements. There are also recordings promoting legislation, endorsing politicians in South Dakota and feature speeches by national figures such as Eleanor Roosevelt, George McGovern, and Hubert Humphrey. The films depict state camp activities, tours, picnics, and parades.

The Archives received a Recordings at Risk grant from the Council on Library and Information Resources in 2018. This project digitized the audio-visual material of the South Dakota Farmers Union. Many of the recordings were in a poor state or in an unknown condition due to the lack of available original information about the items and the proper equipment to play the materials without damage. The Archives partnered with George Blood L.P. to digitize the materials in high quality and sustainable formats.

COLLECTED MATERIAL.

The Collected material is composed mainly of National Farmers Union publications as well as publications from various state Farmers Unions organizations.

COOPERATIVE LEGACY PROJECT.

The Cooperative Legacy Project was organized by Chuck Groth, South Dakota Farmers Union communications director from 1972-2008, spearheaded what came to be known as the Cooperative Legacy Project in which he conducted interviews with dozens of Farmers Union members, cooperative managers, farm organization leaders and grassroots activists. He compiled over 110 hours of audio and detailed the history of Farmers Union and the cooperative movement in South Dakota. The interviews are born digital audio recordings (MP3 and WAVE format files) and are accompanied by documents and photographs scanned by Groth during the interviews (TIFF and JPEG files). The material in folders consists of signed releases and rough transcriptions.

GENERAL.

The General series is composed of correspondence, constitutions and by-laws, clippings, speeches, minutes, advertising material, and scrapbooks. The minutes are from the 11th Annual Convention in 1926 to the 31st Annual Convention in 1946. Financial statements can be found in nearly all of programs.
