The United States is the world’s most productive producer of food, fiber and bio-fuels. There are more than two million farms in the country and approximately one out of every five Americans’ employment is linked in one way or another to agriculture. It goes without saying that the agricultural sector is among the nation’s most important economic drivers. One of the primary centers of agriculture in the United States is central and southern Illinois.
Around this important sector has grown a diverse, but unique, set of laws and regulations. The Law Office of Douglas J. McCarty, LLC understands those issues, and just as importantly, understands the needs of those that strive to succeed in this challenging vocation. From grain contracts to livestock regulation and food safety laws to soil and water issues, the Law Office of Douglas J McCarty can help open the door to this unique area of the law.
