NAAF was created after conclusion of the lengthy Keepseagle v. Vilsack litigation and was designed for the purpose of addressing four areas important to the success of Native farmers and ranchers:

  • business assistance
  • agricultural education
  • technical support and
  • advocacy

The terms “farmer” and “rancher” should be interpreted in the broadest context possible and are meant to include farmers of all types of food and fiber products and ranchers of all types of livestock.

Farmers and ranchers is also interpreted to mean those engaged in aquaculture. In certain cases, farmers and ranchers can be interpreted to mean those who engage in community based agriculture such as community gardens, hunting and gathering for food production purposes and other means that individuals and communities in Indian Country engage in the process of feeding their communities.
