COLUMBUS – Ohio House Speaker Jason Stephens (R-Kitts Hill) appointed State Representative Roy Klopfenstein (R-Haviland) Tuesday as vice-chair of the Agriculture Committee during the 135th General Assembly. 

“Farming is my livelihood, so it is a true honor to be assigned as the vice-chair of the House Agriculture Committee,” said Klopfenstein. “I look forward to working on agriculturally focused legislation that will help shape the future of farming in Ohio.”

Klopfenstein has been farming his property in Paulding County for more than 43 years. He was a state committee member of the USDA Farm Service Agency and a member of the Ohio Soybean Association, Ohio Corn and Wheat Growers Association and Ohio Farm Bureau. He is a former chairman of the Pauling County Extension Advisory Committee. 

“Ohio House members come from all sorts of backgrounds and each present a unique skillset,” said Stephens. “I am confident in our members’ ability to use their expertise to produce strong policies for Ohio.”
