Last month, USDA released a report on concentration and competition in agriculture (read: corporate control). Although we agree, as Alan Guebert points out in this article, USDA’s “conclusions” pander to the corporate narrative, the data reiterates what we know: that corporate control and increased competition lead to higher consumer prices, lower prices paid to farmers, increase corporate profits, reduced wages for workers, and less innovation.
