You get what you voted for, ass clowns.
But don’t worry, looks like SOCIALISM is going to bail you out soon anyways…
How hilarious would it be if they invent soy syrup to subsidize farmers and they start putting it in everything
They’ll be fine. There’s plenty of safety nets for farmers. Billions and billions in handouts for the bootstraps crowd.
This is TERRIBLE! BUT I know a FOOLPROOF Solution to this! PLEASE everyone send your Best Thoughts and Prayers to these Farmers JUST LIKE they were Murdered Schoolchildren! THAT should Fix it!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER
supply and demand is enough to explain low prices. Last year there was a bumper crop and this year all signs point to record harvests (which are starting and so change is almost imposible).
tarrifs are not helping, but they have at most a tiny effect, the harvest is the big factor here.
The US government used to buy something like 10% of the entire US wheat harvest for international aid programs. Losing this, combined with a collapse in soy bean exports, are causing prices to fall.
The article is about corn and soybeans. there is very little overlap with wheat farmers since there is typically a lot more money in corn+soybeans. You grow wheat because your climate cannot grow corn.
This article, however, is not about tariffs.
Trade dispute of any form - it isn’t a significant factor.
They voted for this. Time to harvest.
“You reap what you sow” was legit preached in my church growing up.
Yep. Fuckem.
Thoughts and prayers.
Ah, the find out phase.
