Frederick County farmers oppose merge of agriculture and natural resources
A busload of Frederick County farmers joined 200 plus statewide agriculturists at a House Environmental Matters hearing in Annapolis to oppose a proposed consolidation of the Agriculture and Natural Resources departments. Despite limited testimony, farmers professed concern that a merged agency would dilute focus on agriculture and threaten the sector's status as Maryland’s top industry. Governor Schaefer has voiced opposition and would veto if passed. Local farmer Joe Free of Rocky Springs warned against losing the department’s primacy for agriculture.
