This course will touch on each of these interconnected areas of law: Food, Agriculture, and the Environment; however, we will focus on the “Ag” in our course title. We at Wake Forest Law are lucky to have many adjacent courses in Food and the Environment, including Animal Law; Energy Law; Environmental Law (course and clinic!); Environmental Justice; FDA Law; Food Law; and Natural Resources. (I can also recommend Biotech Law and Policy, Immigration Law, International Trade Law, Land Use Regulation and Planning, Lobbying Theory and Practice, Real Estate Finance, Regulatory Law and Policy, and our tax courses for those interested in an Ag Law practice.) That said, you can’t separate agriculture from food or the environment, for they are intertwined, as we will see. During this course, we will, among other things: consider the role of the Farm Bill in food production, critique various federal farm support programs, study the distinct attributes of farm finance, analyze the pros and cons of industrialized agriculture, and consider the role land ownership and use plays in US agriculture.
