On this edition of The Celsias Show:
•
An interview with Mark Kastel, Senior Farm Policy Analyst from the Cornucopia Institute, one of the truly effective watchdogs of the organic industry.
• Jill Richardson (who famously blogs as OrangeClouds115) discusses the latest developments in Cornucopia's ongoing effort to convince the Inspector General at the USDA to investigate appearances of favoritism at the agency that has benefited Dean Foods, the company behind Horizon Organics, and the Department of Homeland Security's plan to relocate the Plum Island disease facility to the mainland -- a plan which appears to have been based on a flawed study.
Music by B-Side Records.
