Agrarian movements in the U.S. are rooted in a storied history. Enslaved Black people who were forced to work in cotton and other fields revolted over 100 times between the 17th and 19th century<\/a>. Exploited California farmworkers went on strike and unionized<\/a> in the 1960s. And farmers faced with economic ruin during the Farm Crisis of the late 1970s and early \u201880s drove their tractors<\/a> to Washington, D.C. to demand fair prices. <\/p><\/div>

\n

This week, another nascent movement appeared to be coalescing at Freedom Plaza, just steps from the White House. There, farmers and their advocates gathered to bring attention to the urgency of the climate crisis at what they called the Rally for Resilience.<\/p>\n

It was one part of a larger effort to meet an important moment. With the country\u2019s biggest piece of farm legislation<\/a> set to be reauthorized this year, 24 organizations\u2014including the HEAL Food Alliance, the National Sustainable Agriculture Coalition (NSAC), and Rural Advancement Foundation International (RAFI-USA)\u2014joined together to organize three days of action in the nation\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n

A few hundred farmers and allies attended, and the crowd was diverse in every way: Indigenous and Black, urban and rural, organic and regenerative, farmers and farmworkers. At a time when many farmers are aging out of the occupation, the bulk of U.S. farmland is owned<\/a> by a shrinking number of people, and the question of who will grow food here in the coming years looms large, many were also notably young.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of us wondered, \u2018Who\u2019s gonna continue the fight?\u2019\u201d said David Senter, who in 1979 spent 15 days driving his tractor to D.C. from Texas to demand parity for farmers. Senter was back this week to represent the Farm Aid generation. From the stage, he said he was thrilled by the faces in the crowd and their commitment to farming and environmental stewardship. \u201cI pledge my support to all of you young people,\u201d he said. (Stalwart farmer advocates John Mellencamp and Willie Nelson also showed up to offer support\u2014Mellencamp on stage and Nelson via video.)<\/p>\n

The rally was officially focused on climate action, but a mark of this particular movement is a broader recognition of the unequal impacts of the climate crisis and the fact that the policy solutions on the table could easily bypass groups without mainstream agricultural power. Farmers held signs that said \u201cLess oil, more soil,\u201d as well as \u201cBlack food sovereignty now\u201d and \u201cCommunities over corporations.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor generations, corporations and Big Ag have seen us a source of labor and not as the farmers,\u201d said Julieta Saucedo, a small-scale farmer from El Paso, Texas, as she talked about the agroecological farm<\/a> and land stewardship practices passed down in her family. \u201cThe relationship we build with soil dictates the future of our food systems for generations.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the farmers prepared to march to the Capitol building and then to meet with legislators to talk about the farm bill the following day, it was clear that although they will face significant challenges in moving their agenda forward, they are beginning to build strength in numbers\u2014just as their ancestors did. As Navajo Nation farmer Chili Yazzie said, \u201cFarmers are tough, but Mother Nature\u2019s tougher.\u201d<\/p>\n

Where\u2019s the Beef (from)? <\/strong>After several years of rancher and consumer-group advocacy, this week, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) proposed new regulations<\/a> that would only allow meat \u201cderived from animals born, raised, slaughtered, and processed in the U.S. to be labeled \u201cProduct of USA.\u201d<\/p>\n

Currently, sellers can use that label if they package meat in the country, even if the animals came from elsewhere. Since production costs are higher in the U.S., ranchers have long argued that fact undermined their ability to get fair prices. Last year, in an executive order, President Biden promised his administration would address Product of USA labeling as one piece of a larger plan<\/a> to increase competition in the meat industry and level the playing field for struggling farmers and ranchers.<\/p>\n

\u201cTruthful labels protect consumers and keep the playing field fair,\u201d said Joe Maxwell, president and co-founder of Farm Action, in response to the proposed rule, which will soon be open for comments before being finalized. \u201cAfter a five-year fight, we\u2019re pleased to see the USDA stepping up to stop the cheaters picking the pockets of America\u2019s farmers and ranchers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other groups including the American Grassfed Association, National Farmers Union, Consumer Reports, and the American Economic Liberties Project praised the move. But the rancher group R-CALF USA, which has been doggedly pushing for labeling, said the rule would not going far enough, because the requirements won\u2019t be legally binding or come with enforcement.<\/p>\n

Instead, the group wants Congress to reinstate what is called \u201cmandatory country of origin\u201d labeling<\/a>, which would require all meat sellers to identify the country the product came from on the label. \u201cR-CALF USA remains steadfast that only under legislative reform will effective change happen,\u201d the group said in a press release. Meanwhile, the meat industry\u2019s biggest trade group said the new rules<\/a> would likely violate trade agreements and raise prices for consumers.<\/p>\n

In conjunction with the release of the Product of USA rule, the USDA also released a report on consolidation in the seed industry and proposed several steps it will take to improve seed pricing, choice, and availability.<\/p>\n

Roundup Risks.<\/strong> Last week, researchers at U.C. Berkeley\u2019s School of Public Health published a new study showing early childhood exposure to glyphosate is associated with a higher risk of liver inflammation and metabolic disorders in early adulthood. Data in the study came from the Center for the Health Assessment of Mothers and Children of Salinas (CHAMACOS), a project that has been tracking how pesticides impact the health of farmworker children<\/a> in the Salinas Valley, the center of California\u2019s agricultural industry, since 1999. Farmworkers bear the brunt of pesticide exposure, since they are exposed in the fields and often live near farms.<\/p>\n

Glyphosate is the world\u2019s most common weedkiller and is used in fields and on lawns across the country. Increasing attention to its impacts on human health over the last decade has primarily been focused on its carcinogenic potential to cause cancers<\/a> like lymphoma. This is the first study to look at its impact on metabolic and liver disease, which are increasing among children and can lead to liver cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease later in life.<\/p>\n

Pahokee to Palm Beach.<\/strong> Farmworkers and allies with the Coalition for Immokalee Workers (CIW) in Florida announced that they will march across Florida<\/a> for five days next week to celebrate a decade of success while also pressuring more companies to sign on to their groundbreaking Fair Food Program<\/a>. \u201cIf the stark contrast between the humane conditions on Fair Food Program farms and the harsh conditions on farms beyond the Program\u2019s protections has taught us anything, it\u2019s that farm labor abuse is a horrible problem, but it\u2019s a problem with a simple solution: Join the Fair Food program,\u201d said Lucas Benitez, a Co-founder of CIW.<\/p>\n

Created 10 years ago, the program has been credited with markedly improving conditions in agricultural fields for workers on the East Coast, including reducing the instances of sexual assault<\/a> and improving wages and working conditions. Its organizers have made great strides in getting agricultural employers and policymakers to engage with their demands. Last week, CIW representative Lupe Gonzalo participated in a panel on farm labor at the USDA\u2019s Agricultural Outlook Forum, marking the first time a farmworker was given the opportunity to speak to the \u00a0exploitation they often face on farms at the agency\u2019s most important annual gathering.<\/p>\n

Still, some companies have refused to sign on, and the group is continuing to pressure Wendy\u2019s, one of its longest holdouts<\/a>, as well as Publix and Kroger.<\/p>\n
