Happy New Year, MDARD is back to work trying to prevent small farm operations. New proposals to the GAAMPs are forthcoming and oddly enough those changes are NOT available for review at this time.

Anyway, if you want to attend the Ag Commission meeting on January 14 and/or the GAAMP review meeting, please see the following:


LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan Commission of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Michigan Department of Agriculture & Rural Development (MDARD) today announced the public input meeting and review period has been scheduled for January 22, 2014 in order to gather comments on the 2014 drafts of the state’s Generally Accepted Agricultural and Management Practices (GAAMPs).

Public comment will be taken on all eight GAAMPs. There are proposed changes in the GAAMPs for: Manure Management and Utilization, Pesticide Utilization and Pest Control, the Care of Farm Animals, Site Selection and Odor Control for New and Expanding Livestock Production Facilities, and Irrigation Water Use. Currently, there are no proposed changes in the GAAMPs for: Nutrient Utilization, Farm Markets, and Cranberry Production.

The GAAMPs public input meeting will be held at 9:00 a.m. on Wednesday, January 22, 2014, in Room A at the State Secondary Complex – General Office Building located at 7150 Harris Drive, Dimondale, MI.

Thanks, RaZ. There could be a lot at stake at this meeting, if the Site Selection GAAMPs that they propose are anything like the ones they were talking about last fall. Shall we organize a carpool?
