Alexis Baden-Mayer
In her compelling talk, Alexis Baden-Mayer, political director of the Organic Consumers Association, dives into the critical issues surrounding the federal Farm Bill, revealing how it favors multinational corporations and threatens small, independent farmers.
Foreign-controlled agribusinesses like Smithfield, Syngenta, and Bayer benefit from laws that were meant to support U.S. agriculture but instead promote the industrial production of corn, soy and synthetic foods like fake meat. Provisions in the bill enable pharmaceutical companies to influence livestock vaccination policies.
Baden-Mayer exposes the plot to replace real farms with fake food and urges consumers to become more informed and involved in shaping future agricultural policy.
