But farmers don't till it all under unless they planned to in order to heal the soil. Even a partial crop can be turned into silage or straw bales. What does a farmer do when they can't get a second crop off? Silage. Worst case they plow under but that still benefits the soil. |

Your second post is fantasy Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79017631 It would be very easy to convert the decommissioned San Onofre nuclear power plant in San Clemente CA into a desalination plant. This has been suggested for a long time, but the Dems who rule Commiefornia won't let it happen. They also have hamstrung truckers with regulations that will not allow them to pick up product from the largest port in the country in Long Beach..... Treasonous bastards! The whole lot of Dems need to hang from the gallows, Newsome first! |

Yes, but you have to already own or have access to rental of all the machinery to turn those corn stalks into silage or haylage. Most people who grow corn don't also grow hay if they don't have the equipment on hand. When everyone in the state is having the same problems. There isn't going to be the equipment to rent out to turn all that corn into hay. Farmer here, albeit smaller scale . I kinda know what I'm talking about. |

Quoting: NDFarm Again, NDTARD comes here touting his extreme low IQ which is a typical condition of any libtard. The problem, as has been stated, is NOT that we don't have land available to farm. WHY do you make such extreme idiotic statements ALL THE TIME?! One can only hope you are a troll since the vast dumbing down of the USA population is just one more issue we will have to deal with very soon. Most are hoping it will take care of itself as people like you simply perish at your own hand. READ AGAIN WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. If you still don't get it, read it again and again. But this won't help you because one must also be able to THINK! |

If farmers and ranchers do not produce it, we do not eat. I know that I have been writing about the rapidly growing global food crisis a lot lately, but that is because this really is a big deal. All over the globe, agricultural production is going to be below expectations in 2022. As a result, those of us that live in wealthy countries will pay much more for food in 2023, while many of those that live in poor countries will either deeply suffer or die. In fact, children are already dropping dead from starvation in large numbers in some parts of Africa, but most Americans haven’t heard about this because they aren’t showing it on the news. Quoting: The Future Hegemon Of course this isn’t just a crisis for poor countries on the other side of the planet. Here in the United States, the food that is not being grown in 2022 will cause immense economic pain in 2023. There are 17 western states that collectively produce almost half of our food, and right now those 17 states are being absolutely devastated by the worst multi-year megadrought in 1,200 years… The 17 states including and north of Texas, up along the Central Plains to North Dakota and west to California are vital to the U.S. agricultural sector, supporting nearly half of the nation’s $364 billion production by value. This includes 74% of beef cattle, responsible (in total) for 18% of U.S. agricultural production by value; 50% of dairy production, responsible (in total) for 11% of U.S. agricultural production by value, over 80% of wheat production by value and over 70% of vegetable, fruit and tree nut production by value. Drought conditions, which have persisted well into 2022, put production of these commodities at risk, along with the stability of farms, ranches and local economies reliant on crops, livestock and downstream products and services for income. The American Farm Bureau Federation wanted to know how farmers in that half of the nation are faring during this drought, and so they conducted a survey. And what they discovered is extremely alarming. Here is one example… This year’s drought conditions are taking a harder toll than last year’s, as 37% of farmers said they are plowing through and killing existing crops that won’t reach maturity because of dry conditions. Do you understand what that is saying? 37 percent of all farmers in the western half of the country are killing their own crops because those crops won’t even reach maturity because of the endless drought.
