| Message | "What is the reasoning behind these measures? We have a profound concern with encouraging the consolidation of farms into larger ones. We seek reassurance from this government in assuring the food sovereignty of the communities these small farms belong to, as well as the standards of the ever increasing workforce that would farm these larger sites".
