THE DETROIT NEWS: Letter: Michigan Farm Bureau’s Mark and Sarah Mathe: Water rule threatens farming
This flawed rule is an egregious attack on private property rights, threatening the farm community’s ability to tend their own land, address insect and disease pressure, expand their acreage and hire more farm workers. As small farm owners in Michigan, our land means everything to us. The right to use our property as we see fit while respecting the environment not only supports our family, but it also allows us to show our children what it means to be good stewards of the earth.
