Extend federal assistance to small and diversified farms

McGovern supports making government assistance available to organic and diversified farms, not only large single-crop farms. He says federal resources and attention should be comparable for small family farms and larger competitors, and points to conservation programs such as EQUIP as a way to support farms’ long-term stability without long-term reliance on government aid.

In their own words

I have worked to ensure that the government assistance available to large, single- crop farms is also available to our organic and diversified farms.
