Social media platforms are getting flooded with testimonies from farmers, friends of farmers and people who work with farmers explaining how the Biden regime is now paying the people who grow America’s food supply to destroy it.
At a time when inflation is soaring, Washington, D.C., is ordering farmers to plow under the crops they worked so hard to grow. In exchange, these farmers are reportedly being paid high dollar for their obedience (watch below):
VIDEO (language warning)
“This year, farmers are being offered 1.5 times the value of their crops to destroy them,” one man in the above video states. “They’re also being told by the federal government that they will not receive subsidies for farming if they refuse to destroy their crops.”
“That means that the farmer cannot afford to provide you with food based upon the taxes the government is levying on him if the government doesn’t give him back his tax money to provide you with food.”

Just like what FDR ordered during the Great Depression in order to drive up prices so farmers could get more for their crops.
Why?
There is no evidence for this. but interesting to see the rumor fly.....................
Total fake. Read an ag paper or website, not tik tok chinese propaganda.
Farmers here are selling 2nd and 3 rd grade sweet potatoes to deer hunters here. Those deer are eating good.

I speak to people all over North America, and I was talking to someone last summer who had family with farms and ranches and he said the government was paying them to destroy crops.
So if this is a rumor, it’s not a new one.
Well, I farmed for a year and grew a crop of corn
That stretched as far as the eye can see
That’s a whole lot of cornflakes,
Near enough to feed New York till 1973
Cultivation is my station and the nation
Buys my corn from me immediately
And holding sixty thousand bucks, I watch as dumper trucks
Tip New York’s corn flakes in the sea
The Who - Now I’m A Farmer
Next thing you know, someone will spread the rumor that illegal aliens will be paid half a million each for breaking American law! lol
A site called Starvation News writing about farmers and crops deserves no credibility.
Biden will call it Climate Crisis
Beats paying storage on something whose price has cratered or is in unsaleable condition.
I suspect though, that it has always been done.
It’s “transitory”... right? /s
I want names and I want to see the government letters these so-called farmers are receiving.
I tried to send this thru FACEBOOK, but they blocked it.

$10 says this started by someone seeing a farmer chopping corn for silage and assumed they were “destroying “ the corn crop
I live around and worked with farmers for 65 years
They don’t destroy their own crops. Period.
Now I might grant that breaking a regulation might do this.
For example. If the govt paid you to plant a cover crop after harvest to reduce erosion and you then harvested the cover crop to feed your livestock, then government would make you destroy the cover crop and/or pay back what they paid you. Only fair.
Get the details.
Corn and beans prices are high right now
Farmers aren’t going to plow down $6-7/but corn
Some contracted it when it was almost $8
