According to Minnesota Farmers Union Vice President Anne Schwagerl, more competition is needed throughout agriculture. “The drum that we’re banging the loudest right now is fighting consolidation in agriculture,” Schwagerl told RRFN. “From meat processing to fertilizer and seed, it is deeply consolidated and we really need to work on breaking up the big corporations who are controlling agriculture.” Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison was praised for his work on the National Farmers Union’s Fairness for Farmers campaign.
