# legislation in agriculture — Legal Counsel

As Legal Counsel specializing in agriculture, 'legislation in agriculture' isn’t about *knowing* the laws exist – it’s about rapidly applying them to client issues. Daily work revolves around advising on compliance with a constantly shifting landscape of regulations: farm programs (like subsidies & crop insurance), environmental rules impacting land use (water rights, pesticide application, conservation easements), food safety standards (FSMA, organic certification), and increasingly complex trade laws affecting import/export. You'll be drafting contracts that *account* for these laws – lease agreements, supply chain arrangements, financing documents – and defending clients against regulatory actions or litigation.
