I've known many times what it is like to almost starve and I think this will be a bad time for all but we will persevere and I don't know how but come out of it in the end.

Like I said plan and prepare if you can and know that those of us who do this for a living buy groceries too. We ain't out here making a killing off of the work we do. Its all about the love of working the land and producing food for everyone.

In reference to earlier about the supply of fertilizers, production is already ramped up but there is a limit to how much can be produced as well as how difficult it is to increase capacity. We wont run out of fertilizer just wont be able to afford the cost due to demand. The distribution side of retailers will run out immediately because the are trying to avoid getting caught with a bad spot price as well as they know that the everyday consumer probably won't purchase a bag of fertilizer at ten times the price and it would be foolish to be sitting on that inventory.

You need to be able to slap one of those Biden “I did this” stickers on every invoice you generate. Of course, your fertilizer supplier will need a bunch of those stickers too. I plant a little garden and sweat the amount of time and expense I put into it. Raccoons, deer, or my incompetence might cost me a $100 and 20 hours work. I would never have the nerve to wager what you farmers do every year, especially with totally unforeseen, self inflicted madness like this factored into the odds.

Time to go back to “America First “, and prioritize this nations interest over any other country. Welfare recipients will have to work. If it takes a Civilian Corps like in the Depression so be it.
