Holy Cow !!
There isn't going to be enough silage for livestock this winter.
Sure, lets burn corn for reduced 'Btu's in our fuel tanks.
I don't think that the average consumer is aware of the economic impact that flooding will have in their pocketbook,
much less the economic and physical hardship will be on farming and farm families.
I think this photo should be on the lead-off page of this weeks gardening/farming forum, .. (JMO).
The expression : "A picture says more than a thousand words" is more than appropriate here.
I have two topics right off the bat for tomorrow mornings post.
Corn & Soybean lack-o-production and ‘7 Smokeable Plants’ from a ping from Red Badger.
Unless things turn around QUICK, my garden is really going to bite this season. I mean, in a DROUGHT YEAR (2012) I probably had the best garden production ever - because, of course, I COULD get water to my garden.
This season? SO much rain and overcast skies are really stunting growth - big time! Grrrr!
I’m hoping maybe just higher prices and no food shortages.
I bet there aren’t many people who are aware of this problem.
