Take what you need? Looters will take all they can carry.
due to dramatically increased fertilizer costs. A lie! part of the agenda they have set forth the scamdemic is part of it
“Let me repeat, the economics will NOT work.”
Gee. How many DECADES now have we been screaming this at Congress with NO notice by them, whatsoever!?!?
“If you’re hitting the grocery store to prepare for winter weather, please just buy what you need and leave some for others! You may have noticed empty shelves in some stores due to national supply chain issues, but there is no need to buy more than you normally would.”
Yep. And Chocolate Rations will ‘increase’ from 10 grams to 5 grams this week! Thanks, Mayor Bowser! *SPIT*
A farming “insider”.
That could be anyone from a seed salesman to an equipment operator.
Corn will be planted, but not with the same level of fertilizer, herbicides, and pesticides as before.
Since most of the input costs are from Bayer/Monsanto, they will start screaming to world governments for a bail out.
Yields will go down. HFCS and ethanol will take a hit. Meat prices at the store will sky rocket while live head prices plummet.
Yeah... Get a freezer. Plant a Garden. Learn to can and preserve food. The US SHOULD be OK, but many other places won’t be.
A side point, but I want to make clear they are not really using liquid nitrogen. It is anhydrous ammonia. Farm boy here.
The US Farmer can outproduce anyone. That is why in the 1930s Dust Bowl years FDR ordered the slaughter and burial of tens of thousands of cattle and hogs, to get the price up.
Starving people without jobs were denied access to the beef.

If you need food just find those houses that have the ‘Love is Love, Water is Life, Black Lives Matter’ signs in their yards. They can’t defend themselves and most of them work for the government.
Corn == Ethanol
" “Things for 2022 are interesting (and scary). Input costs for things like fertilizer, liquid nitrogen and seeds are like triple and quadruple the old prices.
It will not be profitable to plant this year. Let me repeat, the economics will NOT work."
"Our plan, is to drop about 700 acres of corn off and convert to soybeans (they use less fertilizer, and we also have chicken manure from that operation).
Guess what? We are not the only ones with those plans.
Already there is a shortage of soybean seeds, so we will see how that will work out.
"The way I see it, there will be a major grain shortage later in the year, especially with corn. I mean, we are small with that.
What about these people in the midwest who have like 10,000 acres of corn? This will not be good.”
"Corn for example, typically takes about 600 pounds of fertilizer per acre, plus 50 gallons of liquid nitrogen.
Times that by many acres and thats a lot of money.
Soybeans take much less.
" The plan for us, and most others around here, is to drastically cut corn acres and switch to soybeans.
Problem is, there is apparently a soybean seed shortage because others have this plan as well.
We were lucky enough to pre buy enough to do it.
However, most people, especially younger farmers, or farmers where that is all they do, probably don’t have the money to front like that."
Is this a planned famine as a result of mandated elimination of petroleum products by the regime ?
Unintended consequences, ..or Ivy League computer modeling into subsistence and population control ?
Nothing from the regime surprises me, anymore. Take note of how our grandparents survived during hard times, or how the British survived during WWII .
You can't hunt deer if there aren't any around to harvest; look at those who survived the Depression.
Read the entire article to gain a full understanding of the enormity of the farm situation and necessary fertilizers Your comments welcomed .
Dairy farms that are not producing their own feed will go bankrupt in the tight margin between milk prices and increasing feed costs.
