Letter: Attacks on modern farming techniques

In his recent letter, Washington farmer Gil Crosby warns that false narratives surrounding Section 453 of the House appropriations bill threaten modern agriculture. He explains that the provision would protect farmers' access to science-based crop protection tools, which are vital for keeping farms efficient, sustainable, and affordable. Crosby cautions that restricting access to these tools could raise input costs, lower yields, and drive up consumer prices. He calls on Congress to act swiftly, emphasizing that agricultural policy must be grounded in science, not activism.
