Viral footage on Chinese social media revealed that peasants were ordered to clear forests to make way for arable land, amid fears of worsening food shortages.
The person recording the footage said: “We just received a notice that we are required to cut down these trees and grow grains instead, even if financially it ends up being a loss. Commodity prices are so high nowadays – fertilizers, pesticides and prices are ridiculously high.”
According to the video, the forests being cleared out for growing grains are located at the city of Weifang in Shandong province. Local authorities in Weifang ordered the clearing of forest land. The video showed many trees in the background that had already been chopped down, with some having their roots exposed. Other peasants had removed a large area of mature trees at the behest of Weifang officials.
The footage also captured a speaker in the village making an announcement. The speaker said trees are prohibited from being planted in farmland, and that the newly cleared forest land cannot be used for fish ponds or fruit orchards. They also reiterated that the trees must be cut down within a limited timeframe before authorities forcibly “kill” them.

Well good.
We can't have a whole class of people sitting around watching TikTok videos.
Get out there and go to clearing! GIT!
We all know the answer.
steady income, 3 squares... er weeds with gravy, and housing
not bad considering the alternative
And the United States does nothing for ourselves, our own sake, our own families...
WAKE THE HECK UP!
If we got rid of ethanol mandates, and ended our system of paying some farmers to avoid growing crops, it'd be the agricultural equivalent of Trump making us energy independent. We'd grow way more food than we need (it's called a surplus) and when the wacko nations like China wanted some of it we'd ask, "How bad do you need food?"
With china’s ag practices, it will be desert in ten years.
Just harvest 12 bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, and a lot of salad from my kitchen. I highly recommend AeroGarden for people who do not have the space to grow.
I was able to grow salad throughout the winter. My setup includes the Farm 24XL and a Harvest Family. It produces 2 large salads a week. Getting ready to try out the MicroGreen kit.
This week I will grow my starter plants in the AeroGarden.
Have you started growing weed yet? That's worth money.
Looks like they need to get busy with STUMP REMOVAL.
The greens don’t care ?
Sounds like the Great Cultural Leap Backwards, Part 2
“Have you started growing weed yet? That’s worth money.”
Lol, if our medicine supply collapses, we might have too. You could trade weed. I wonder if Tobacco could be grown too, that would be great for trading.
Tobacco, weed & alcohol are straight money
in a collapsed society. Or a ghetto or a blog.
