SUBJECT: "Save the Family Farm, Act" Legislation
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOM ENDATION:
Take no position on federal legislation entitled "Save the Family Farm Act"
as recommended by the Agricultural Resources Advisory Committee.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMENDATIONS:
Earlier this year, your Board received a letter from Supervisor, District 1,
County of Colusa requesting the Board to adopt a position of support for the
"Save the Family Farm Act" . Your Board referred the matter to the County
Administrator, the Agricultural Resources Advisory Committee and the
County' s congregational delegation.
The Agricultural Resources Advisory Committee has reviewed the request to
support the "Save the Family Farm Act" and has recommended unanimously that
the Board of Supervisors not support the legislation. The committee felt
that it could not approve the bill because the subsidies proposed to be
provided by the bill applied to only a few selected crops.
