Abstract

Steven Gran, manager of the Agriculture Industry Development Program and agricultural liaison for Hillsborough County, talks about the work of the program and agriculture in the county. He discusses the economic sustainability of local agriculture, land use planning, surface water impacts, nuisance complaints, simplifying regulations, farm worker housing, and the future of agriculture in the county. He also argues that farmers are often unfairly blamed for nuisances, which results in their relocation.
