In recent months a crisis situation in the USA food supply has been growing and is about to assume alarming dimensions that could become catastrophic. Atop the existing corona pandemic lockdowns and unemployment, a looming agriculture crisis as well could tip inflation measures to cause a financial crisis as interest rates rise. The ingredients are many, but central is a severe drought in key growing states of the Dakotas and Southwest, including agriculture-intensive California. So far Washington has done disturbingly little to address the crisis and California Water Board officials have been making the crisis far worse by draining the state water reservoirs…into the ocean.
So far the worst hit farm state is North Dakota which grows most of the nation’s Red Spring Wheat. In the Upper Midwest, the Northern Plains states and the Prairie provinces of Canada winter brought far too little snow following a 2020 exceedingly dry summer. The result is drought from Manitoba Canada to the Northern USA Plains States. This hits farmers in the region just four years after a flash drought in 2017 arrived without early warning and devastated the US Northern Great Plains region comprising Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and the adjacent Canadian Prairies.
As of May 27, according to Adnan Akyuz, State Climatologist, ninety-three percent of the North Dakota state is in at least a Severe Drought category, and 77% of the state is in an Extreme Drought category. Farm organizations predict unless the rainfall changes dramatically in the coming weeks, the harvest of wheat widely used for pasta and flour will be a disaster. The extreme dry conditions extend north of the Dakota border into Manitoba, Canada, another major grain and farming region, especially for wheat and corn...

Yes, restricting the world’s food supplies.

I think it’s all about buying up California and running it like a fiefdom.
“So far the worst hit farm state is North Dakota which grows most of the nation’s Red Spring Wheat.”
Looks like it’s time to stock up on flour and yeast, like NOW, and get it into the deep freeze for the coming, ‘Seven Years of Famine’ under Biden and his Deep State handlers... with some help from Mother Nature. :(
I got my hard white wheat, which I like a lot better than the red.
I’m interested in learning how to grow some of it.
“...California Water Board officials have been making the crisis far worse by draining the state water reservoirs…into the ocean.”
Gotta provide freedom of travel to the little fishy!
And in their minds, unfortunately probably dumb enough to believe they can help increase ocean levels to prove “climate change/global warming” hysteria.
The rich globalists will most assuredly eliminate food supply, to advance their own global governance political agenda, and control over the serfs.
But those grain-fed fumes coming from automobile tailpipes are just fine, thank you verrrry much!!!

I pinged an expert for ya, Metmom! ;)
Last spring was my first serious attempt at growing wheat. It was a disaster, but I was able to apply the lessons learned, and the winter wheat I planted in the fall is looking MUCH better!
Most hard wheats are winter wheats, so if you like you could take some you bought for grinding, and plant them in the fall. They get planted around the same time as garlic. In fact mine are in a combined “wheat and garlic” bed, which is helping control the weeds and pests. Be aware that yours is most likely also a dwarf wheat, which makes harvesting by hand awkward.
Plant densely. They need to be packed together to outcompete the weeds. But make sure to leave walking space every 4 feet or so, so you can reach everything.
I would love to share harvesting tips, but I haven’t had a successful enough harvest to find out!
I have Prairie Gold hard white wheat.
I would not need a huge patch to supply us what we need.
