What's it about?

What's been said about it:

"Farm Facts Or Fiction? demonstrates that the rapid disappearance of small family farms is the result of the domination of the agri-food market by a small number of huge corporations, and of government policies that favor the interests of corporate agribusiness over those of farmers and consumers."

Farm Facts Or Fiction? is provided on a need to know basis – you need to know.

Farm Facts Or Fiction? requires a Flash Player plug-in, version 6 or later.

On the left is a Flash rune.

If you see a flashing Flash rune on the right, then your plug-in is okay. (Some browsers quickly display a "Document: Done" message when you start the movie. In fact, that is a bit misleading - the movie is still loading. Please wait a few seconds.)

If you don't see the flashing Flash rune, click the button below to go to the Macromedia Flash Player Download page.

Follow Macromedia's instructions for downloading and then installing the player. The entire process only takes a few minutes and they have made it easy. The player is free. Unlike e-mail, there is NO chance of getting a virus.

(You may have to scroll down the page to locate the Flash Player Download button.)
