Cornell CALS releases new white paper focusing on 2020 NYS food and farm COVID-19 effects

The COVID-19 pandemic continues to create disruptions and hardships on individuals, families, communities and businesses throughout New York state.

In this series of nine discussion papers, Cornell CALS experts seek to provide perspectives and insights on the impact of COVID-19 to selected agricultural sectors. Their goals are to assist in bringing a greater understanding of the effects of immediate and sustained disruptions in the farm and food system on the agricultural economy and assist in highlighting lessons learned to strengthen the food system going forward. For more information, please contact Julie Suarez, associate dean for Land-Grant Affairs.
