Waste and water woes
The Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP), a popular conservation program, awards disproportionate amounts of funding to industrial agriculture practices, which offer little or no real conservation benefits! As Congress debates and drafts the 2023 Farm Bill, our new report offers recommendations on how EQIP, which is funded through the Farm Bill, should be reformed.
We approach our work from a systems perspective.
IATP is a think tank that understands the interconnection between agriculture, trade and climate.
We see how interrelationships between issues within complex societal structures make it challenging to effect change but also open powerful opportunities.
We ask who has the power? Who wins and loses? Who is at the table when decisions are made?
We identify opportunities for big changes within trade, agriculture and climate policy. And we propose bold solutions that will bring us closer to our vision.
