For decades, agribusiness giants and multinational corporations have treated our food and farm system as a twisted game of Monopoly.
Join the National Family Farm Coalition (NFFC) and Iowa Citizens for Community Improvement (Iowa CCI) for a webinar that exposes the monopolization of agriculture by these corporate titans.
Austin Frerick, author of Barons: Money, Power and the Corruption of America’s Food Industry, will pull back the curtain to reveal how a handful of companies, led by massively powerful modern-day “Robber Barons,” have managed to seize control of the food we eat—at the expense of independent farmers, consumers, and the environment. Then, hear from farmers who are actively taking control of their own livelihoods and empowering themselves and others to challenge the status-quo.
With upcoming elections and a new Farm Bill on the horizon, we’ll also explore promising federal policy efforts that could reshape our food system—and how you can take action to support a more just, equitable future.
