Abstract:
The Farmers' Union, formally known as the Farmers' Educational and Cooperative Union of America, was predated by two other national organizations; the Grange and Farmers' Alliance. Though this organization never met memberships as large as the other two, it had its largest membership in North Carolina after its introduction to the state in 1905. This organization focused on improved education and legislation to benefit the state's farmers.
