Farmers Destroyed Food After USDA Failed To Buy And Redistribute Surplus Unlisted Video

Food demand fell because of the coronavirus pandemic and now millions of pounds of food are being wasted on U.S. farms. According to Business Insider, farmers don’t have a way to put it on the market for profit. The waste comes because buyers like restaurants, hotels, schools and sports venues are shut down. While the federal government set aside $3 billion for the U.S. Department of Agriculture to buy it and redistribute it… The USDA has failed to launch the program fast enough and now the food is being wasted.
