U.S. Farmers & Ranchers Alliance, Inc. Antitrust Caution

  • Directors represent Eligible Organizations (EOs). At least some EOs are or can be competitors of other EOs in one or another
  • circumstance. For that reason, all Directors need to be mindful of USFRA’s commitment to antitrust compliance.
  • Conversations and agreements regarding the fixing of prices, division of territories or customers, terms or conditions of sale,

volume of production, limitations on market access, forestalling of research and development, boycotts of market participants, refusals to deal or any other anticompetitive activity will always be off limits at USFRA.

  • Keep in mind that anticompetitive agreements or combinations among competitors need not be formal to raise questions under

antitrust laws. A verbal understanding to act illegally may be harder to prove but when proven is no less illegal.

  • Promptly report to USFRA’s Chairperson and USFRA’s CEO any information or concerns you have about actual or possible

antitrust activity at USFRA. In addition, when in doubt about a particular situation, also consult your own EO’s counsel.

Chatham House Rules

  • Participants are free to use and share ideas and information received during the session without attribution – neither the identity

nor the affiliation of the speaker(s) may be revealed.
