The California Farm Bureau Federation and the Community Alliance with Family Farmers (CAFF) have both expressed support for Governor Newsom’s proposed 2020-2021 budget. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Farm Bureau president Jamie Johansson: \u201cThe governor\u2019s budget reinforces his commitment to rural California. In his inaugural address last year, Governor Newsom promised not to leave rural California behind, and he reiterated that commitment in a meeting with our Board of Directors last summer. The proposals contained in his draft budget reflect his concerns for the future of farmers, ranchers and the rural areas they support. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Farm Bureau will work with the administration and the Legislature to assure that programs addressing the needs of farmers, ranchers and rural California receive the budget investments required to enhance the quality of life and economy throughout the state.” <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n

CAFF executive director Paul Towers: “CAFF applauds Governor Newsom\u2019s investments in the state\u2019s family farmers as well as their communities. The Governor\u2019s proposal reflects bold investments in farm-based solutions to climate change. It will create new economic opportunities for family farmers and deliver more healthy food to all California schoolchildren.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Governor\u2019s proposed investments in the state\u2019s school nutrition programs and farm-to-school efforts, including funding for the Office of Farm to Fork, grants for schools and an interagency working group, are a critical first step in ensuring all California kids have access to nutritious, sustainable and locally-grown California food. We look forward to working with First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom and Secretary Karen Ross to flesh out the details of this exciting initiative.<\/p>\n

\u201cCAFF also applauds the Governor\u2019s recommitment to building healthy soils and promoting sustainable pest management. We are encouraged by continued funding of the Healthy Soils Program, one of the state\u2019s landmark programs to encourage climate smart farming, and to accelerate the transition to sustainable pest management solutions. We will work with the Governor and the Legislature to ensure continued support for successful programs to improve irrigation efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions from dairy waste and see promise in the proposed Climate Catalyst Fund, a green revolving loan fund, to help producers meet some of these challenges.<\/p>\n

\u201cFinally, we are pleased to see reinvestments in the University of California Division of Agriculture and Natural Resources, an important on-the-ground partner and technical assistance provider for small and historically underserved farmers.\u201d<\/p>\n
