Disparity to Parity to Solidarity: Economic Justice & Agricultural Policy
October 26, 2021 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm UTC-5
Economic injustices abound, particularly in and through food and agricultural systems, from corporate monopolies to labor exploitation to trade dumping. This panel dives into the fundamental cost-price squeeze, debt, and concentration at the heart of the dominant agricultural political economy. As part of the year-long Disparity to Parity webinar series, this event gathers practitioners and analysts to unpack the economic inequities–and economic justice potential–of farm policy.
