#1 a pandemic program which worked with farmers, farm associations and food distributors to purchase unneeded food that would otherwise be thrown away
That is, food grown and/or pre-purchased for the restaurants, hotels, cruise ships, etc. kitchens which were shut down.
Doesn't really say why, just that the funds will be redirected to food stamps, because $Billions.
Not necessary in states like Florida and Texas (or those who didn't close) which are now open. Probably fuggs the Ag Community in lock-and-chain states like Michigan and California. |
