Challenges for Small Farmers in the Food Industry

Small farmers face significant challenges in the food industry due to government regulations and barriers that favor large corporations. Regulations, such as not allowing small trucks to deliver produce, create obstacles for small-scale farmers to access markets like supermarkets. The system, while not necessarily a conspiracy, tends to protect the interests of powerful entities, unintentionally hindering small farmers from reaching consumers with artisanal or niche products.
