The Economic Cost of Food Monopolies

Published Jan 13, 2022

In the past few decades, our food system has become increasingly consolidated: local grocery stores and farmers markets have been replaced by supermarket chains while family-owned farms have been overtaken by factory farms and CAFOs. Through it all, it’s everyday consumers like us who have paid the price, for the benefit of agribusiness.

Join Food & Water Watch for a discussion on the economic costs of food monopolies, and how we can fight back. Through legislation and policy change that stops corporate consolidation and supports local communities, we can reimagine our food system.
