More and more #land is being taken away from farmers and communities and they are faced with adversaries of overwhelming power – increasingly on the basis of environmental and #climate protection. Latest opinion from Nicholas Jacobs #landgrab

“In the US, agricultural trade associations are “enormously powerful”, says Ben Lilliston, director of rural strategies and climate change at the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy. “Our farm policy is very much their policy.” The sector’s spending on US lobbying rose from $145mn in 2019 to $177mn last year, more than the total big oil and gas spent, according to an analysis by the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS).”
How #BigAg wins massive access to subsidies and exemptions from environmental protections. But in whose interests? "Behind the scenes the agricultural lobby is a sprawling machine with vast financial resources, deep political connections & a sophisticated network of legal & public relations experts" writes the Financial Times [$]

👏 👏 👏 How it's done! Building community, soil, and power, hats off to the Central Virginia Agrarian Commons! #landjustice #farming #agriculture

Two years ago @agrariantrust helped us raise the money to buy a farm in Petersburg. @tyronepowercherry has a 99 year lease on his 1/4 acre. @healinghopeurbangardens has a 1/4 acre as does Baba Obar. We put a community kitchen on site, cold storage, got the well working and the electricity up, and there is more to come. Folks that come through our 12 week Central Virginia Urban Farm Fellowship can access land to start their farm journey on the @petersburgoasiscommunityfarm as an alternative to land access if they don’t have the money to buy they own land. Our vision is that they will graduate to larger acreage that we own in Amelia County or even Henrico. All 85 acres we own through the Central Virginia Agrarian Commons - our own community land trust. This shit is real. No rants on the internet. Reparative Land Justice and real life sweat and blood. People talk a lot on here but I don’t see the lip service matching the real life works. If you can’t taste, touch, see and feel it - how do you measure the tangible impact? One thing about farming - the land will tell on ya. Is you really working? We can show you better than we can tell you
