#fertilizer #shortage starting to #worry #farmers and their #crop #yields https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/al.. Is it time to start #panicking yet? If we lose the #food #supply , we really are in trouble...
Apparently #us #farmers are #ditching #corn and switching to #soy in order to save on #fertilizer #costs https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/fe.. This will have very #serious #sideeffects .
#biden #economists completely #oblivious to the #complications with "just #grow more" #signal to #farmers https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/t.. They *can't* - #fertilizer is through the roof, they might not have the #land , there is 4+ #months of #delay , etc.
#uk #farmers are now being told to be less #rude to #trespassers , despite people literally breaking the #law into #dangerous #agricultural #land https://www.lotuseaters.com/westminster-.. Who on earth told the #city people they were allowed into the #countryside they hate so much? And why is it the #responsibility of the #farmer to be their #tour #guide ?
#california in the #us is now cutting off #water #supply to #farmers during the worst #drought season they've had in a long time: https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/w.. This is apparently in order to save some #endangered #salmon - which is going to have a knock on effect for #crops and therefore the #economy ... The situation is very fucked right now. I do not believe they chose the right option.
