UC-Berkeley and UC Cooperative Extension are seeking input from livestock producers and interested parties who live in California on the future of wolf-livestock compensation. All survey responses are anonymous, and any data collected will be securely housed at UC and shared only in aggregate form with CDFW and the public. The survey can be accessed at the following link, takes approximately 20 minutes to complete, and will close on June 11th. Take survey here: https://lnkd.in/gbjd2H8D This survey is part of CDFW’s ongoing review of the current wolf-livestock compensation program and is intended to gather feedback to help improve the pilot program established in 2021. It is separate from the survey distributed by UC in July 2025. #CAFarmBureau #Survey #AgSurvey #Compensation #Program #Predators #Wolf #Livestock #CDFW #UCCooperativeExtension

The U.S. Department of Agriculture said it will make available up to $9 million to fund the removal of cling peach orchards by growers whose long-term contracts with Del Monte Foods were voided following the company’s bankruptcy and the closure of its cannery in Modesto. In business for 139 years, Del Monte contracted about 35% of California’s cling peaches last year. The funding from USDA will support the removal of up to 420,000 cling peach trees, or approximately 3,000 acres. “We’re grateful for the swift action taken to protect peach growers, the peach industry, their families and the rural communities that depend on this industry,” Rich Hudgins, president and CEO of the California Canning Peach Association, said in a statement.
