What are the implications of corporate ownership and consolidation of agriculture? Join Food Sleuth Radio host and Registered Dietitian, Melinda Hemmelgarn, for her interview with Richard Oswald, a 5th generation family farmer, journalist (Progressive Farmer, Daily Yonder), President of the Missouri Farmers Union, Director for the Organization for Competitive Markets and Board member of the National Farmers Union. Oswald describes the changes he's witnessed in his rural farming community, and explains how trade pacts, Country of Origin Labeling (COOL), and Right to Farm legislation impact family farmers, food quality, and ultimately U.S. food security. Produced by Dan Hemmelgarn.
