Senate bill aims to drive down meat prices by supporting small farms, including in Finger Lakes

A new Senate bill seeks to lower meat prices by helping small farms, like those in the Finger Lakes region, compete against large agribusinesses. By offering support to these smaller operations, the bill hopes to diversify the meat market and reduce reliance on corporate farms, which can drive up prices. This move could foster a healthier agricultural economy and ensure more affordable meat for consumers, making it a significant step for local farmers and the broader market.
