Danielle Diamond, Senior Director of Research and Resources at SRAP, and her research team recently presented at Yale’s Big Ag & Antitrust conference. Danielle and her team explored how right-to-farm laws across the nation exacerbate injustices in rural areas and contribute to the decline of rural communities.

The panel elaborated on current agricultural policies that legalize pollution and enable corporate agribusinesses to externalize their costs of pollution at the expense of individual property rights, farm families, local economies, as well as public health, worker safety and the environment.
