Cornel?
Isn’t cabbage their other staple? Forget the potatoes - make/eat stuffed cabbage rolls!!!
Cornell, Michigan in the Upper Peninsula. Lots of potatoes in the UP.
We’ve got a ton of potatoes in Idaho, Washington, and yes, Maine.
Russia, you can’t have any of them.
Thanks - I was wondering the same.
Thanks.
Plenty more in North Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan.
Theyll be harvesting in the southern region over there by end of june...Georgia and south.
The rest’ll be made up by south america..like Brazil. Brazil and Argentina, etc are killing US agruculture. Brazil grows year round.
So what’s to be done? Cant blockade them since the ships will drop off at Georgia or someplace. Gonna target Georgian shipping?
US exports over 3 million metric tons of potatoes in several forms.
++++++++++
3 million metric tons is quite different than 2 million pounds. Your point is taken. USA is providing Russia with food.
Oh ya?
Distributor cones to any western potatoe growers farm and offers a price and they’ll sell.
You, me, nor anyone can say shit about it.
Those spuds would go to eastern Siberia though...or through some country on the pacfic rim.
Perhaps Putin can put the 50,000 recent conscripts to use by planting potatoes instead of dying in Ukraine.
Funny huh? They got a sellers market going on and now the freedom loving people on site are against it.
Which is odd because most Americans think eating turkey eggs falls somewhere between weird and gross.
lol
Gonna tell Bill Gates where he can sell his potatoes?
Thats RIGHT. Gates is a major producer.
Aint that a bitch?
Potato crisis.
Sounds like Babylon Bee to me.
Nah. He’s gonna get all the potatoes he needs from invading Finland.
This article is pure BS.
Right now, Brazil and the rest of the south American countries have completed harvest.
They’ll ship to Russia if need be. Itll go through another country..like Georgia or someplace.
No way!
You will have to tear Marcus from FR Cold Dead Hands.
He is Comedy Gold Jerry.😄
So, let the war continue since obviously Russia is losing (NOT winning, same thing).
Forget about tanks, drones, aircraft, soldiers. It all comes down to potatoes!
To Trump, just walk away.
