"Trump’s funding freeze disrupts efforts to transition farms to regenerative practices, leaving farmers in financial distress."

Food+Tech Connect’s roundup hits the hotspots—Trump’s funding freeze gutting regenerative ag efforts is brutal, leaving farmers scrambling while Olipop’s $1.85B valuation screams “plant-based soda is here to stay!” RFK Jr.’s FDA overhaul ambitions? Bold move, but good luck navigating that swamp. And Fairlife milk? Coke’s milk-money hustle deserves a standing ovation, but Wall Street’s side-eye? Classic.

Wait—does anyone else think regenerative farming needs a PR push to win policy love? Or is Olipop’s prebiotic hype actually changing minds about functional drinks? Asking for a friend who’s still confused about “functional” vs. “fizz.”
