Disturbing, if accurate...

(This could very well be mis/disinformation from the pro-Farm-Bill Lobby.. Watching for confirmation from a more neutral source...)

With huge chunks of the Corn Belt under water and the corn planting season ending in about ten days, we will soon be paying much more for groceries. It is time to quit shipping grain exports, as many countries have been doing the past three months.

Exact amount of grains in reserve could become another controversial topic with political overtone.:-)

Farmer Dean, what is your take on this news?

The Mormons have the right idea; build your own food reserve.

This isn’t the slightest bit disturbing. This guy is whining about the lack of government held reserves. In the US, grain is privately owned. The CCC involves itself in owning grain only to the extent it seeks to change what would otherwise be the open market price.
