RAFI-USA is a non-profit Organization dedicated to the preservation
of family farms, conservation of agricultural diversity, and a sustainable
system of agriculture. RAFI-USA's programs address the trends and
changes in agriculture that affect us from the local to the global
levels. Working with a variety of farm, community, university, and
government groups, RAFI promotes sustainability, equity, and diversity
in agriculture through policy changes, practical assistance, marketing
opportunities, and access to financial and technical resources. RAFI-USA
receives financial support from individual contributors, private foundations,
churches, and fees for publications and services. |
