Some farmers in central Oklahoma are speaking out in support of State Question 777.John and Gaye Pfeiffer produce hundreds of cattle and feed at Pfeiffer farms in Mulhall.However, Gaye said that in recent years, she has had to make several trips to the capitol to fight legislation that has attempted to regulate agriculture.“Like in 2014, there was a bill that someone tried to pass that we had to provide shelter barns for wheat pasture cattle, you don’t do that,” Pfeiffer said.However, if the question passes, she said this will give farmers more protection.“If it passes, it allows us to use the science that has been tested and proven to be safe,” Pfeiffer said.Pfeiffer said this will protect her right to use agriculture technology, such as genomic testing and feed additives. She said this technology will help them produce more product that can also keep prices at the grocery store down.“They want us to farm like we did in the 1920s, but we don’t have the 1920 population,” Pfeiffer said. “We wake up every day knowing that we have to feed the world. Right now, the U.S. farmer feeds 155 to 175 people. Every morning when we get up, it’s our responsibility to feed that many people. We have to be able to do that.”While some farmers support this legislation, environmental groups fear it could open the door for animal abuse and environmental damage.Numerous cities, including Edmond and Choctaw, have passed resolutions against the question.
