• 1 2015-09-18T20:35:53-07:00 People work to address concerns that different kinds of growing and processing practices... 1 Based on Statement 21 plain 2015-09-18T20:35:53-07:00

  ...decrease health and safety for consumers.

  This statement was based on passages from the "Farm-to-School in Minnesota: A Survey of School Foodservice Leaders"...

  In response to the question on barriers to using more local foods, respondents rated "Liability/farmer compliance with food safety and food handling standards" as the second highest barrier. (Question 20)

  ...and the Land Stewardship Project (see Myth Buster #15).

  "Organic vegetable operations can use cattle manure as a natural source of fertility, and E. coli is often present in raw bovine waste. For some commentators, that was enough evidence to indict all organic farms."

  It is also reflected in statements from the Minnesota Pork Producers Association (on an old version of their webpage)...

  "Individuals who provide the daily care to pigs demonstrate their commitment to safe, wholesome pork by taking part in the educational program, Pork Quality Assurance Plus... to learn best practices for managing swine herd health, the proper use of health products and technique to assure swine well-being."

  ...and the Minnesota Obesity Center (described in a press release captured in this screenshot).

  "Researchers will combine primary care, a child's home environment and community-based intervention strategies into a program that aims to spark changes in food intake, physical activity and body weight among low-income, ethnically diverse children."

  ...that enable healthy, fair, and transparent social relations between different sectors of the food system.

  This statement was based on "Farm to School in Minnesota: A Survey of School Foodservice Leaders"...

  The top four reasons to buy local foods were: "Support the local economy," "Support Minnesota farms/businesses," "Good public relations," and "Increase student consumption of fresh fruits and vegetables."

  ...the Minnesota Department of Agriculture's page on agricultural land preservation statutes...

  "The Metropolitan Agricultural Preserves Act of 1980 established an agricultural land protection program in the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area... Farmers receive property tax credits and additional benefits by placing a restrictive covenant on their qualifying land, limiting its use to agriculture."

  ...and the Winona County Local Foods Inventory.

  "The inventory consists of general information about the supply and demand for local foods in Winona County, as well as a directory of local food producers, processors, and potential institutional buyers. It represents a first step toward a greater understanding of the state of local food production and consumption in Winona County, and, ideally, a step toward increased sales of local foods to local institutions."

  It is also reflected in statements from the Organic Field School (on a past version of their webpage, before being merged into Gardens of Eagan programming)...

  "Food purchasers, organizations, farmers, policy makers, educators and the businesses that have roles in the local, organic food system - all benefit from having access to a successful, economically viable, working, organic farm. Each plays a key role in the food system we wish to create."

  ...the National Gardening Association (on a past version of their webpage)...

  Community gardens provide a source of food, add aesthetic value, encourage physical activity, help preserve cultural identity and, most importantly, cultivate neighborhood relationships.

  ...and the group Promoting Modern Agriculture.

  In the age of social media, a lot of information is available and it spreads rapidly. Social media multiples the impact of inaccurate information... Agriculture is way behind the general population on the use of social media
