The National Black Growers Council, John Deere, and the Thurgood Marshall College Fund have announced a coalition focused on improving the livelihoods of Black farmers.
According to a release from the group, it will particularly focus on the preservation of heirs’ property in rural communities throughout the United States.
“Property ownership is a driver of economic growth for individuals and families. However, too often the benefits of ownership for those who lack clear title cannot be truly realized,” said Marc Howze, Group President, Lifecycle Solutions and Chief Administrative Officer for John Deere.
