Home Page Why New Rules? Get our e-Bulletins Rules Index ... Contact Us Banning Corporate Ownership - South Dakota Amendment E was passed via referendum in November 1998 with 59 percent of the vote. It was backed by more than two-thirds of farmers and received significant support from South Dakota's urban centers. Amendment E joined Nebraska's Initiative 300 as one of the strictest measures of its kind in the nation. Not only were corporations forbidden from owning or controlling farmland, but the practice of of companies paying farmers to raise crops or livestock on their behalf was also prohibited. This practice, known as "contract feeding," was permissible through a loophole in the old anti-corporate farming law, passed by the state legislature in 1988. Amendment E also disallowed structures such as limited liability corporations and partnerships in which farmers join together to limit their financial liability. South Dakota's Constitutional Amendment E was ruled unconstitutional on August 19, 2003 by the U.S. 8th Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis, MO. The appellate court found the law that South Dakota voters put in place in 1998 to be in violation of the Interstate Commerce Clause. "I'm very disappointed with this decision," said DRA FARM team leader, Charlie Johnson, "but the fact remains that the voters of South Dakota have chosen family farms over corporate factory farms three times since 1974. While the 8th Circuit Appellate Court has shown total disregard for the wishes of South Dakota's citizens, I am encouraged by the knowledge of the broad support we have for this issue at home," said Johnson.

A Bull Bison in Western North Dakota by Stephen-KarenConn In the Badlands of western North Dakota I saw a colony of prairie dogs beside the highway and decided to take a hike across the prairie through their "town". My presence frightened the barking rodents, so I was unable to get a good photo of them. However, about a quarter-mile from the highway I topped a small rise and saw this maginificant bull bison. I quickly took this photo and backed away. If he had come my way there would have been nowhere for me to hide except down a prairie dog hole, and I don't think I would have fit.

Water Pollution In Depth : Report America's Animal Factories How States Fail to Prevent Pollution from Livestock Waste Top of Report Chapter 18 NORTH DAKOTA Large-scale corporate animal factories are moving into the state, setting up ownership arrangements that escape the state's prohibitions against corporate farming. North Dakota has unusually strong regulations to control odor from factory farms. North Dakota has not implemented its solid waste law for factory farms even though the law covers farms as well as industry. Neighbors of a controversial factory pig farm have gone to court to force the state to enforce the law against factory farms. Today, most of the largest livestock operations in North Dakota are cattle feedlots. The most controversial operation in North Dakota, however, involves an industrial pig farm close to urban Grand Forks. Cattle farming, a familiar part of the North Dakota landscape, tends to be located in more rural parts of the state and is widely accepted by state residents. In recent years, public opposition has focused on a kind of farming that is relatively new to the state giant pig feedlots owned by out-of-state corporations. EnviroPork, a 5,000-sow operation that produces 110,000 piglets each year

" A Critical Bibliography on North American Indians Smithsonian Institution: "Images of Native Americans are all around us. They appear in movies, television, books, and sports; are used as symbols and logos for tires, butter, the environment, carpeting, and automobiles; and show up at different times of year as Halloween costumes, in Boy Scout and Campfire Girl rituals, and as guests at Thanksgiving feasts. Few of these images have any basis in reality, drawn as they are from one of the most closely held beliefs of American mythology. Indeed, even Indians themselves sometimes have a difficult time separating the reality of their lives as human beings from the fantasy expected of them by the rest of America. "

The first step in meeting any group's long-term care needs is to identify the needs of the group. Conducting valid needs assessments can be costly and complex. Fortunately, some readily available information about American Indian long-term care needs across the country exists, as does a project to help tribes identify their individual needs. It is also important when assessing American Indian long-term care needs to remember the importance of culture, family, and friends in delivering care to elders. Finally, according to, Steven Wallace of the UCLA Center for Health Policy Research, the 2000 census has information about the number of people on reservations who reported self-care disabilities (
