This is a result of federal funding from the Natural Resources Conservation Service and funding from both New Castle County and Kent County,” said Delaware Secretary of Agriculture Michael Scuse. More than 124,000 acres of Delaware farmland are now permanently preserved for future generations, with 3,039 acres of easements selected into the state’s preservation program.

More than 127,000 acres of Delaware farmland are now permanently preserved for future generations, with the purchase of the development rights of 41 farms totaling 3,534 acres. This is the 22nd consecutive year of easement selections by the Delaware Agricultural Lands Preservation Foundation.

A related model, the M2004J19C, is listed at the 3C with a 10W charger, though that would be a weird downgrade - both the Redmi 8 and the cheaper 8A support 18W charging. Anyway, these will be 4G phones, which probably comes as no surprise. Previous leaks showed a photo of the quad camera on the back of the phone, which...
