There's still time for citizens to take action. That's why Farm Aid is so important. We have traveled to Farm Aid '98 to highlight the most important issues confronting agricultural communities throughout the United States. We also bring you solutions and actions you can take. We need your support.
Family farmers are outraged.
Consumers should be too. What's at stake is the prosperity of rural communities, the future of our environment, and far-reaching questions of food safety and affordability. Government and corporate spin doctors try to tell us that factory farms are more efficient. But in reality they get sweetheart deals, low interest government loans, and tax breaks that aren't available to family farmers. All the while they're polluting our air, poisoning our water, destroying our land, and raising animals inhumanely.
