John Klar, small farm advocate, food freedom expert, and MAHA advisor, joins the program to discuss the sustained real-world pressures facing farmers today. From relentless competition with large corporations to burdensome legislation that can make it increasingly difficult to grow food, raise livestock, and remain economically viable, John explains why so many family farms are under growing strain.We also discuss how the current Iran war has intensified already fragile conditions, with potential supply chain disruptions in fertilizer, fuel, and other critical agricultural inputs. John shares why these mounting pressures could have serious consequences for food prices, food security, and the long-term resilience of local farming communities. In addition, we examine how moves toward greater centralization of the global food supply are creating regulatory burdens that may increase vulnerability rather than strengthen stability. This is an important conversation on the future of farming, food freedom, and why supporting local producers matters now more than ever.You can learn more about John Klar and purchase his book at https://SmallFarmRepublic.comSee Marjory Wildcraft’s FREE Growing Food Webinar at sarahwestall.substack.com/p/free-prepare-webinar-how-to-grow
