Subsidize Diverse Sustainable Farms not Corn
We need to have less subsidies to big agriculture and more to small sustainable farms. We need to support small, local family farms so they can provided healthy food at a price everyone can afford. This will not only make us a healthier people but also make our planet healthier. Large scale mono-agriculture is harmful to the environment and unsustainable. This way of growing food requires the use of large amount of pesticides and fertilizes which end up in our drinking water.
