The budget cuts to the UC Cooperative Extension have been reversed. Our collective pressure forced the county to recognize the necessity of these services for our agricultural community. Keep watching the upcoming budget cycles to ensure this funding remains protected.

The budget planners are currently debating these cuts behind closed doors while ignoring the long term damage to our agricultural economy. Pick up your phone and call your county supervisor today to demand they protect the Cooperative Extension funding. Tell them the proposed reduction is disproportionate and will hurt every farmer in this county.

The momentum behind this effort proves that people recognize how essential these services are to our local agricultural economy. Call your county supervisor today to demand these budget cuts match the reductions seen across other departments. Post the petition link on your Facebook page to ensure our representatives understand the scale of this support.

The farm advisors have been helping us for years. Cutting them off is bad for the local economy.
this is short sighted. the extension office helps families and farms save money and grow properly. dont cut them down this much.
My kids love the 4-H programs. Please dont take this away from them it is one of the few good things left in the county.
STOP SLASHING AG SERVICES!! Solano is an ag county and we need that extension office open for business. Period.
Ridiculous to cut this so deep. They help our farmers everyday and that keeps the whole county running. Find the money somewhere else.

36 percent is way too much compared to the other cuts. looks like someone has it out for agriculture. keep the funding at reasonable levels.
