Corn is in EVERYTHING from ethanol to paper products, to fullers in meds, corn syrup, animal food.

People really have no idea how pervasive it is.

This right here is how China gains control of the world’s food supply. We ain’t seen nothing yet re: food inflation.

Fertilizer for my hay fields increased slightly over 2x from last year. Added approximately $18/bale to produce with getting 4.8 bales/acre.

Who pays? I pass it along to the cattle producer. And who do you think they pass it along to.

These zipper heads are trying to break America with a1000 cuts. Any other _resident would and should consider this an act of war but not this addled brain pos.

Americans, prepare to defend yourself

Looks like the ChiComs just got control of a lot of our major ports with the Ports America sale.

And not a peep out of Congress.

I always used straight potash on my hay fields. 3 cuts a year, and sheep manure for nitrogen. I made large squares once the kids went off to college. Small squares when they were home to help. 80 acres in hay.

I hate to think of the bills for corn fields! Can't grow corn without it!

Small squares 40 pounders will be sold for $6 to $8 per bale for 2nd cut. My first always went into the silo.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, and again, and again:

Why we aren't partying like it's 1776 in Washington DC tarring, feathering and hanging all the bastards is just beyond me.

I've been ready, willing and able for 30+ years now and I fear I'm getting too old to participate afer all this poor ol' body of mine has been through.

“3. United States
Mine production: 23 million MT

In 2019, US phosphate mining decreased, dropping by 2.8 million MT from the previous year. The top phosphate-producing states, Florida and North Carolina, accounted for over 75 percent of domestic output. The other 25 percent of US production came from Southeast Idaho and Utah.

The majority of the phosphate rock mined in the US is used for manufacturing phosphoric acid and superphosphoric acid. These types of wet-process phosphate products are used for things such as animal feed supplements. About half of this type of phosphate is exported in the form of merchant-grade phosphoric acid, granular diammonium and monoammonium phosphate fertilizer.”

we are still too comfortable. And possibly think the system will correct itself in election cycles.

That ain't gonna happen. Those of us who retain logical, critical thinking skills know that.

The sheep do not.

I cant even say its the dems because its every party. They waited, dumbed down pur children that we willingly gave them for a couple of generations and they know.
The foghters and freedom serkers are too old to match 50 miles on a perfect day. They used the patript act to militarize police forces.
Its cjess and we will lose. Unless we fo the unthinkable and take our families back. They didnt march 50 miles, why should we.. its not a game of force, its a game of strategy. We become like them when we kill and destroy and o how they would love to make us those people.

Well, that’s a dangerous game to play because China cannot feed itself.
