Please justify this point of view, because Measure J only applies to large CAFOs (as defined by federal regulation). This will only impact the operations of large corporations like Perdue, not “rural people”. Your post reads like corporate propaganda.
CAFOs apply to dairy farms with >700 mature cows. So you’re saying that it’s not going to affect any dairies?
They said nothing about them being small family businesses; they said that they’d been a part of rural Sonoma for generations.
And I have noticed that there’s a strong trend of city people moving to rural areas, and then complaining about the things that have been there for decades before they moved in. It’s a little ridiculous. I moved out of a city because I wanted to be closer to farms and forests, live off a dirt road with spotty cell connection and power that goes out if Mother Nature sneezes, and have bears that go rooting through my composting. Bitching about people that have been there since long before I showed up seems… Shitty. And trying to run them out when it’s pretty damn likely that I’m personally benefitting from their business seems even worse.

This would apply to 21 facilities in Sonoma County, none of them small family businesses.
In fact these massive farms are actively killing smaller ones using any means necessary.
I mean if they want to run a few Trump-supporting farms out of business on the way out I’ll give them a few months lol
