Here is what 2 of my fellow farmers so elequently shared with the FDA down in San Antonio. Please listen to the logic in what they say - and then explain to me how the absense of logic in the proposed regulations doesn't make sense to Senator Cornyn or anyone else supporting this bill (S510)?
100 crops = 100 safety plans! We'd need to hire people just to handle the paperwork!
And Brad nails it - we've already got that - tracibility.
Great job Judith and Brad - thank you and the others there in San Antonio, during the peak of planting season no less, for representing N. Texas Farmers, too.
Please be sure to continue to stay posted on this issue - we'll need the support of our customers/supporters to help make the voices of the farmers heard. Let them know you have food safety with your farmers' direct sales.
Your food choices will be at risk if they shut down small farms by virtue of over-regulating them out of business. And our food will be no safer, and in fact, less safe, as a result of it passing.
Senator Testor has proposed ammendments we need to get behind - we all want food safety - small local farms already have it. Go to www.foodandranchfreedom.org for details, to support small farms' representation in DC and Austin, and to stay posted on this and other important issues that affect YOUR food.
