The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) says it has nixed more than $1 billion in funding for local food banks and schools by terminating two programs that aid state, tribal and territorial government food purchases.
The buy-local programs support the purchase and distribution of goods produced within the state or within 400 miles of the delivery destination.
