Millions are expected to join the nationwide mobilization launched by a combination of central trade and an united front of called the .

India’s major farmers and workers unions are coming together to launch a nationwide mobilization on Tuesday, November 26, to demand the government address the distress faced by the majority of the country’s population of farmers and workers.

A call for nationwide was given by the united farmers front, Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM) and a joint platform of the Central Trade Unions earlier this month. Left-affiliated farmer’s organizations All India Kisan Sabha (AIKS), All India Agricultural Workers Union (ALAWU), and Center for Indian Trade Unions (CITU), one of India’s largest trade union federations, are part of the call to mobilize.

NEWS: Cultivating Change with Farm Transitions Australia

Farm Transitions Australia is a non-profit organization that plays a crucial role in facilitating smooth transitions for farmers, working with them to create a more sustainable future for them, their families, consumers, and the planet.

Did you know that transitioning to environmentally friendly, plant-focused farming uses fewer natural resources to produce crops, which makes them less expensive to operate compared to animal-based farms? Animal-based agriculture incurs 13% more expenses than plant-focused agriculture. While both animal and plant-based agriculture incur losses, the plant-focused industry is twice as profitable as the animal-based industry.

Farm Transitions Australia provides a much needed service to help dairy and meat farmers transition to more sustainable, regenerative and plant-focused practices.

Currently, they are working on Australia’s first farm transition. FTA are working with an Aussie beef farmer to provide him with FREE support to transition his farm into an agritourism hub. PLUS, the more than 800 Angus cows from his farm will get to live their lives in freedom, safe from slaughter!

If you’d like to support FTA’s valuable work, head over to their website: farmtransitionsaustralia.org

@theconversationau save on meat by knowing what we are buying. Buying local at butchers in bulk. Eg we bought a hogget (is cheaper than lamb but only difference is a tiny bit more age on the it and has its 2 adult teeth up).A whole hogget was $300 for about 40kg. Works out cheaper,because had choice on how beast was cut up, know that will work for less food wastage for us as a family. Eg flaps n shanks into mince etc. Butchers sell halves too if freezerspace is issue. #supportfarmers #buylocal

"We stand with all the other organizations that are taking John Deere to task for its various violations of other agreements and laws, including antitrust, and we hope these organizations succeed in bringing fairness to farmers. We each help in our own ways, which is the true strength of the right to repair movement."

Software Freedom ConservancyJohn Deere's ongoing GPL violations: What's nextI grew up on a farm. My parents worked hard to grow crops and manage the farm business. My parents also found additional jobs to make ends meet. As farmers have done for millennia, my family used tools to farm. Some of those tools were tractors. Farmers now, as they have for thousands of years, rely on their ability and right to fix their tools. Perhaps that's bending a hand rake back into shape. Maybe they need to weld a broken three-point hitch back together. Agriculture was humanity's first truly revolutionary technological advancement. Since its inception, each generation of farmers exercised their right to repair their tools. This has allowed agriculture to grow and improve immeasurably. We take for granted the benefits that this has given us, and the abundance of food it provides.
