Abstract
A federal farm policy should, as has been the case at least since the Great Depression, focus on three things: (1) providing nutritious and affordable food; (2) producing food sustainably and in a way that regenerates the environment; and (3) providing a decent living for those that raise food and ensuring equity in the opportunities to engage and succeed in farming. This essay suggests ways that farm policy might further these goals while remaining relatively consistent with what we understand to be the priorities of the President.
