The USDA was notified yesterday that US exporters are set to ship nearly 400,000 metric tons of corn to foreign buyers, so obviously no one is worried about the price of our food here.

Argentina is suspending the export of their wheat, and other countries are banning grain exports, but the good old USA is shipping our grain out even when the crop forecasts for this year point to shortages here. Free traitors don’t care about your food bill.

Sounds like foreign farmers are getting their jobs outsourced.

Well, that just the corn average Americans refuse to eat. < /sar >

All kidding aside, these probably are contracted sales. With the price of corn going though the roof, I imagine exports will decrease in the future
