The Family Farming Act is legislation that recognizes and supports small-scale farmers who manage farms primarily for family income and sustenance. It aims to promote the economic stability, sustainability, and resilience of family farms by providing resources, financial assistance, and policies tailored to their needs. The act encourages local food production, preserves rural communities, and ensures that family farmers can compete fairly in the agricultural sector, fostering agricultural diversity and cultural heritage. Essentially, it’s dedicated to strengthening family-operated farms as vital contributors to food security and rural development.
