From 2007 to 2017, regulatory costs for small farmers in California skyrocketed by 795%. To advocate for small farmers, Shannon Douglass, the President of the California Farm Bureau, and I explored in depth how these regulations are really hurting small, local farms. Despite California's professed support for these farms, burdensome regulations often push them out of business. For example, the mandate to switch to electric forklifts imposes costs many small farms can't afford. Farmers also can't pass on increased costs due to competition with cheaper imports from countries with fewer regulations. Well-intentioned regulations often have unintended negative consequences. Shannon advocates for addressing these issues through: - The California Farm Bill - Water issues - Mill assessment increases - The insurance crisis affecting farmers Despite these challenges, Shannon's passion for agricultural advocacy shines through. She aims to ensure future generations can continue farming in California, seeing tough times as opportunities for innovation and improvement. #UnitedAg ##ThisisAg #CaliforniaFarmBureau Rhianna Macias California Farm Bureau UnitedAg Shannon Douglass Click here for more insight on advocacy, policy, and the future of farming in California: https://lnkd.in/dawVvUQY
