SUMMARY:Making the Grade? A 2023 Review of the Biden Administration's Commitment to Food System Competition
DESCRIPTION:Last summer\, Farm Action and Open Markets Institute released a report card grading government agencies’ progress toward the directives in President Biden’s 2021 executive order promoting competition throughout the economy. \nNow\, with less than two years remaining to deliver on the promises of the executive order\, it’s time to check in on the agencies again to track the progress made on behalf of farmers\, ranchers\, and the American people\, and to bring attention to what the administration must accomplish in its remaining time in office. \nOn July 17\, advocates\, policymakers\, and members of the press attended a virtual release of our latest report card: A 2023 Review of the Biden Administration’s Commitment to Food System Competition.  \nThis virtual event will underscore the urgency to act\, as the deadline swiftly approaches to make positive\, lasting changes to our consolidated food system — that won’t simply be nullified by the next administration.  \nYou can read the report here\, and watch the full recording of the event on Farm Action’s YouTube channel here.

SUMMARY:Balancing the U.S. Agricultural Trade Deficit with Higher-Value Food Crops
DESCRIPTION:Domestic production of high-value\, nutrient-dense crops has long been on the decline in the United States\, with the majority of our acreage shifting to livestock feed and fuel production. Despite having nearly one billion acres of farmland and a population of only 330 million\, the U.S. is increasingly dependent on imports for its supplies of produce\, legumes\, and whole grains\, driving an agricultural trade deficit. \nHow have these key performance metrics of our food system changed under the most recent 2018 Farm Bill? How many acres of American food crops have been replaced by imports? And what would it take to balance the U.S. agricultural trade deficit by increasing the production of higher-value food crops?  \nAt the release of our new research\, paper author Alison Grantham\, PhD\, of Grow Well Consulting answered these questions. Farm Action Fund president Joe Maxwell then set out the 2023 and 2028 Farm Bill policies that will support the shift towards Food\, Not Feed. \nWatch the video of the full event on our YouTube channel here.

SUMMARY:The Worsening Agricultural Trade Deficit: Its Impacts & How We Solve It
DESCRIPTION:For three of the last five years\, the United States ran an agricultural trade deficit. Now\, economists at the USDA are forecasting another deficit for 2024 of over $30 billion — the worst ever on record. \nThe U.S. agricultural trade deficit leaves our food system vulnerable as we have become increasingly reliant on imports from other countries to feed our people\, and the impacts ripple across the entire food system. The escalating agricultural trade deficit is an alarm bell to our nation’s farmers\, ranchers\, workers\, and consumers\, and it should be a wake up call for our government. \nWatch the recording of this roundtable discussion to learn about the impacts of and solutions to our growing agricultural trade deficit from farmer\, food system worker\, and trade expert perspectives. \nSpeakers: \n\nBill Bullard\, R-CALF USA\nMorgan Harper\, American Economic Liberties Project\nKatelyn Hettinga\, Rethink Trade\nChristian Lovell\, Farm Action\nRachel Lyons\, UFCW\n\nWatch the recording here!

SUMMARY:Enough Is Enough Tour
DESCRIPTION:16 farm organizations announced the launch of the national Enough Is Enough Tour in protest of government policies that drive consolidation of the food system into the hands of the largest multinational corporations to the detriment of farmers and ranchers.  \nWith Congress preparing to debate the farm bill during prime planting and calving season\, restricting farmers’ and ranchers’ ability to bring their voices to Washington D.C.\, farm groups will gather at events in at least six states to call on members of Congress to deliver a bill that levels the playing field. \nA major focus of the tour is to highlight corruption in government checkoff programs\, which compel farmers and ranchers to contribute a staggering one billion dollars annually and which have been co-opted by corporate interests. Checkoff dollars are often funneled to lobbying organizations that represent the world’s largest meatpackers and grain traders\, which then work against the interests of the very farmers and ranchers mandated to pay into the programs. \nEnough Is Enough Tour events will take place across the country\, hosted by grassroots and national organizations representing the interests of our nation’s food producers: \n\nMay 14 | Clearwater\, MN | Hosted by American Grassfed Association and Thousand Hills Farm\nMay 22 | Osseo\, WI | Hosted by Wisconsin Farmers Union\nMay 24 | Nicodemus\, KS | Hosted by Kansas Black Farmers Association\nMay 29 | Columbiana\, OH | Hosted by Buckeye Quality Beef Association\, Ohio Farmers Union\, and Pennsylvania Farmers Union\nMay 31 | Guntersville\, AL | Hosted by Alabama Contract Poultry Growers Association\, Competitive Markets Action\, and the Organization for Competitive Markets\nJune 4 | Bismarck\, ND | Hosted by Dakota Resource Council

SUMMARY:Justice for America’s Poultry Growers: A Roundtable Discussion
DESCRIPTION:WATCH THE RECORDING \nThe highly concentrated poultry sector is dominated by large corporations that control poultry farmers through contracts that give them abusive levels of power over farmers’ income and operations. This model is called “contract growing\,” and it is how almost all poultry is produced in the U.S. \nAs the U.S. Department of Agriculture considers reforms to this system\, join our discussion to hear from current and former contract poultry growers: \n\nJonathan Buttram is President of the Alabama Contract Poultry Growers Association and a former contract poultry grower for Koch Foods. He suffered retaliation tactics after catching the company manipulating scales to cheat him out of the full value of the chickens he raised. He has been featured in several documentaries\, including “Super Size Me 2: Holy Chicken!”\nTrina McClendon is the co-founder and owner of Trinity Poultry Farm and a contract poultry grower for Cargill/Continental Grain. After years of contracting with Sanderson Farms\, Trina spoke out after the company attempted to cut her pay following its acquisition by Cargill/Continental Grain. Trina testified about abuses within the contract poultry growing system before Congress in 2022.\nCarlton Sanders was a poultry grower for 28 years. In 2001\, Koch Foods bought the small company he sold his chickens to\, and he lost his farm after Koch Foods drove him out of business with discriminatory practices. His story has been widely documented\, including in a ProPublica investigation.\nCraig Watts raised poultry for Perdue Farms until he spoke out against misleading labels and food safety concerns. He has testified on Capitol Hill and his story has been featured in The New York Times and on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. He is the Contract Grower Transition Program Director for the Socially Responsible Agriculture Project.\n\nThis roundtable discussion will be moderated by Christopher Leonard\, a business reporter and author of The Meat Racket\, The Lords of Easy Money\, and Kochland. \nWATCH THE RECORDING \n

SUMMARY:Worse Than We Thought: Food System Consolidation Crisis Revealed
DESCRIPTION:WATCH THE RECORDING \nToday just a handful of dominant corporations dictate who farms\, what they farm\, and what Americans eat. \nFor the first time\, Farm Action has gathered definitive evidence of excessive market concentration across all food and agriculture sectors — from inputs like seed and fertilizer\, to agriculture markets\, to capital and risk management — all in one place on our Agriculture Consolidation Data Hub. The cornerstone of this hub is Farm Action’s new in-depth report\, “Kings Over the Necessaries of Life”: Monopolization and the Elimination of Competition in America’s Agriculture System. \nJoin us for remarks by Assistant Attorney General Jonathan Kanter and a discussion with paper author Basel Musharbash to learn about the current state of food and agriculture consolidation — and how this isn’t the first time corporations have had a stranglehold on our economy. We’ll dive into the policies that got us here\, as well as the work currently underway to free our economy. While important progress is being made\, we can’t stop there. We’ll discuss how the U.S. government can take swift action to rein in the dominant corporations so our economy works for farmers\, workers\, and consumers. \nWATCH THE RECORDING \n  \n

SUMMARY:Post-Election Briefing: The Road Ahead for Anti-Monopoly Food and Agriculture Policy
DESCRIPTION:WATCH THE RECORDING \nWith the 2024 election now decided\, join Farm Action and Farm Action Fund for a briefing on the road ahead for anti-monopoly food and agriculture policy in both the White House and Congress. Our farmer-led organizations will review the implications of election results as well as present our policy roadmap for the incoming Trump-Vance administration. \nFor too long\, dominant corporations have abused their power to steal farmers’ livelihoods and put once-thriving rural communities in decline. Meanwhile\, consumers and their families are paying more than ever for food\, food insecurity continues to be high\, diet-related chronic diseases are on the rise\, and America now imports more of the food people eat\, causing a growing agricultural trade deficit. \nOur elected officials must prioritize farmers and families over the profits of dominant corporations. We will discuss the policy actions needed to rein in corporate power\, balance the food system\, and empower farmers to supply their communities with safe\, nutritious\, and abundant food. \nWATCH THE RECORDING \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Undoing the Power of Corporate Ag in Rural America
DESCRIPTION:VIEW THE RECORDING \nIn the 1990s\, a new agriculture production model called concentrated animal feeding operations began to take hold\, first in poultry and then in hogs and dairy. This model not only treated workers and animals as commodities in a brutal industry of slaughter and supply chain economics\, but it also wreaked havoc on rural economies and the environment. Meatpacker conglomerates like Smithfield\, Tyson and JBS established powerful forms of corporate control that turned farmers into contract growers\, or modern-day serfs. \nToday\, many politicians and agriculture industry organizations continue to support this model of industrial farming that allows corporations to consolidate and wield their power over farmers to the detriment of rural communities and the environment. \nYet the tragic story of today’s food system is far from inevitable. Join Barn Raiser and Farm Action on Tuesday\, March 4\, to hear Sonja Eayrs\, author of Dodge County\, Inc.\, and Joe Maxwell\, co-founder of Farm Action\, discuss how farmers and rural communities across the country can fight corporate power\, not only for the sake of land\, labor and water\, but for democracy itself. \nVIEW THE RECORDING \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:EA Global: New York City 2025
DESCRIPTION:Farm Action’s Angela Huffman will join a wide network of people who have made helping others a core part of their lives at EA Global: New York City 2025\, from October 10-12. \nAngela will discuss the battle over Proposition 12 in the 2025 Farm Bill\, which is a fight over the future of animal welfare in the food system. Passed by California voters\, Proposition 12 requires minimum space standards for pigs\, chickens\, and calves and applies to all products sold in the state. In this talk\, Angela will explain efforts to dismantle this law and connect them to the broader system of subsidies and lobbying that keeps factory farming entrenched. She will highlight what’s at stake for animals and how independent farmers are pushing back\, offering lessons for advocates seeking systemic change. \nApplications to attend are now closed.

SUMMARY:OEFFA Conference
DESCRIPTION:Farm Action’s Angela Huffman and Joe Maxwell will lead a workshop on a question a lot of farmers and eaters are asking right now: Can Washington deliver a healthier food system? \nThey’ll talk through what’s moving in D.C. and what’s not\, and what it will take to back up “real food” talk with real policy. That means taking on corporate consolidation\, reducing chemical dependence\, and rebuilding the local and regional food infrastructure farmers and communities need. \nThey’ll also share where grassroots advocacy can make the biggest difference\, and what people can do next to help push the system toward healthier food and fairer markets. \nRegister today to join in person!
