N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – The North Dakota Farmers Union has passed a special order of business, reiterating its support for the current corporate farming law.

NDFU is opposed to a bill that moved through the North Dakota Legislature this past year, exempting dairy and swine operations from complying with the corporate farming law. According to NDFU President Mark Watne, voters will have their say on this issue in June.

The North Dakota AFL-CIO surprised the Farmers Union, showing up at the convention with a resolution supporting family farmers and opposing any changes to the state’s corporate farming law.
