There were seven major farm fires in the United States over a recent 10-day period.
In the big picture, they were for the most part relatively small-scale events. But with reports of so many fires at food production facilities, you can’t help but notice.
Coincidence? It could be. But it does get your attention.
A barn in Hanover Township, Ohio, burned Monday. Officials initially were concerned that a person was in the burning structure but found no people or animals inside, according to the Butler County Journal-News.
Saturday was a North Smithfield, Rhode Island, horse farm fire. Thankfully, none of the 40 horses was injured, but it was the second fire at the site in two days – a blaze Thursday destroyed a horse ring, WJAR-TV in Providence reported.
Also Saturday was a multialarm fire at an empty barn in Cedarville, New York, according to WKTV-TV in Utica.
That night, tens of thousands of chickens died in a fire at an egg production facility in Wright County, Minnesota, WCCO-TV in Minneapolis said.
On Friday, some 70 dairy cows escaped when their barn in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, caught fire, and they had to be rounded up to avoid being hit by fire equipment, according to the Express-Times in Lehigh Valley.
More tragic was a May 28 fire in Laveen, Arizona, southwest of Phoenix, that killed more than a hundred animals, including chickens, goats and sheep plus two dogs, KNPX-TV reported.

Sometimes s#it just happens.
Check Bill Gates’ flight schedule.
Interesting how not one plant or farm owned by Bill Gates has been affected.
How does it compare with the number of fires in previous years?
Maybe they’ll make more on the insurance than this worthless economy and they need cash, now.
Media doesn’t want to link the 2021-2022 food handling fires (but they link “gun violence” all the time.)
This was the subject of overheated denials on “fact check” sites that go overboard saying this wasn’t linked or really so bad.
As one of the Gibbs Rules on NCIS: There are no coincidences.
Can you name a few owned by his heinous Gates?
Could it be insurance fraud?
I'm thinking that it's become impossible to turn a profit running a farm and prohibitive to maintain it. If no one else will buy it, why not torch it?
Cascade Investment is the vehicle for his ownership of some 300,000 acres of farmland.
Paging Art Bell. A whole lot of possibilities (and even coincidence) have to be investigated and ruled out before it can be deemed a conspiracy.
Farmland, does that include any food processing facilities?
..... Hmmmmm ..... Government Sponsored and Encouraged ...... Insurance Fraud to help their cause????
Don’t worry, they’ll never let a crisis go to waste.
Satellite or drone with a laser weapon? And why would it be China when our own current regime has the same goals?
The National Fire Incident Reporting System has related data sets, none of which provide numbers specific to food processing plants. But the data does provide annual averages on fires that could be related to those types of facilities.
For example, the annual averages of fires that have occurred in the U.S. between 2015 and 2019 are as follows:
All manufacturing and processing facilities: 5,308
Agriculture: 961
Grain or livestock storage: 1,155
Refrigerated storage: 35
So here is what is going on...
The prices of food are going through the roof...
The prices that farmers get for producing farm products are not increasing...
The cost of the farmers for producing are going through the roof
The oligarchs that control the processing and delivery of farm products profits are going through the roof.
The farmers are burning their farms and collecting insurance to offset the money they invested.
Socialism fellas... it is all predictable... 1984

That’s useful information. Thank you.
