In other words, the freedom to farm that has belonged to mankind since Creation will be abolished.

All of our freedoms will be abolished. We're into the Brave New World era now. How soon before we are tagged the same as our animals?

Petition signed, but I don't think they care about our petitions.

From the silence on this thread, seems no one is opposed to the Brave New World era.

Agriculture has been under a socialist management system since the formation of the USDA and farm subsidys.
The Chicago board of Trade, sets the value of agricultural products, and the farmer is dependant on what the CBT says will be paid on a given day for a given crop or animal. Free market forces have been non existant in agriculture for years because competition is limited to the CBT commodity structure.
The consumer has been lulled into complacency by the promise of cheap and safe food and has no clue about the socialist implications of the American Agriculture regulators.
