Legislation introduced by @SenBooker & @repmarkpocan would impose an 18-month moratorium on food & ag mega-mergers. Today, we’re joining 200 other groups urging others in Congress to support it as well. foodandwaterwatch.org/news/over-200-… @NFUDC

Corporate consolidation has contributed to declining farm incomes, loss of choice for farmers, stagnant wages & increased layoffs for workers, the erosion of rural economic vitality, and a less resilient food system: nfu.org/2018/11/01/ove… pic.twitter.com/0x1ISJJRAR

@KZigbi says the US food system creates 1/5 of US jobs but pays the least of all sectors. She recommends @RuralCo & their work on "farm policies which provide increased access and support to small-scale, limited-resource farmers, ranchers and farmworkers" bit.ly/KZonFoodKolu pic.twitter.com/qWYgaXV1tM

"Sustainable agriculture wasn't discovered in 1947 ... this is old-school technology used by cultures all over the world for centuries. We're reclaiming our right & connection to the land and our traditions." Leah Penniman, @soulfirefarm #foodsovereignty #NESAWG18

Also, we know this is a structural issue with a long history because when you map food insecurity, it's the same as the map for unemployment; for poor health outcomes; for worse educational outcomes and opportunities; for redlining. #foodapartheid #foodsovereignty #nesawg18

On this #NationalFarmersDay we thank family and small farmers for doing the hard work of growing our food.
We think it's time to change our food policies to support small famers & ban the factory farms harming them. @FamilyFarmCo #BanFactoryFarms foodandwaterwatch.org/news/farming-m…
