Análisis profundos
At FarmSTAND, we use litigation as a tool to build power in the movement for a fair food system. Our Deep Dive series transforms key findings from our lawsuits into resources that empower advocates, journalists, policymakers, and the public with the facts they need to take on Big Ag.
Lawsuits are a powerful tool for demanding otherwise hard-to-get information from targets like agribusinesses and the government. Through discovery, depositions, and other legal processes, FarmSTAND uncovers key facts about how our food system works— information that Big Ag hides to maintain its power over workers, consumers, and independent producers of food.
We don’t just use that information to win our cases: We share what we’ve learned to fuel more wins by our movement. Check out the first entries in this ongoing series below:
