• RESPOND to laws, regulations, or misinformation that would negatively impact animal welfare, animal ownership, restrict our rights, and limit our freedoms.
Why Protect The Harvest was Founded
Protect The Harvest was created to defend and preserve American freedoms and to support farmers, ranchers, outdoor enthusiasts, and animal owners.
Most Americans are unaware that there are special interest groups in America that have evolved into a wealthy and well-organized movement that is determined to change our way of life. These groups are aiming to control agriculture, land and water use, and eliminate human-animal interaction as well as hunting and fishing. Their approach is to reach their goal incrementally via influencing public opinion with misinformation and writing, funding and marketing legislation and regulations to suit their agenda. The end result is an America that is less free and less prosperous, the elimination of animal ownership and human-animal interaction, the elimination of our ability to provide affordable food for our families and the ability to enjoy traditional past times.
Why All Americans Should Be Concerned with the Activities of Special Interest NGO’s
The global population is skyrocketing, by 2050 there will be over 9 billion people on the planet. Experts estimate that in order to feed all those people, we will need to double our food production, using the same amount (if not less) of land and resources that we do today. However, the very techniques and technologies that have allowed food producers to keep up with current demand are under constant attacks from misguided activists and uninformed government bureaucrats. Their tactics range from producing misinformation to scare and manipulate the public, to pushing for legislation and regulations that have undisclosed, far-reaching consequences.
At the same time, the rights of individuals to hunt and fish, and even to own animals for entertainment or food, are being threatened. The result is an America that is increasingly hungrier, less free, and less secure. At Protect The Harvest, we work diligently to inform the public about their activities and to fight for these basic rights.
