Ukraine is gong to export virtually no wheat this year. Russia is limiting wheat exports to keep their domestic prices from climbing too far.

Meanwhile from the Palouse, the best wheat growing ground in the US, farmers export 85-90% of their wheat.

Grocery prices are going to skyrocket, in part due to climbing costs of fuel, chemical, and fertilizer. But also in part because foreign demand for our wheat will climb as Ukraine and Russia limit exports. You think we're going to limit exports to keep our domestic prices within reason?

I'm not familiar with other parts of the US but I'd imagine the situation is similar. Corn grown for fuel instead of food and massive portions of our crops slated for export at inflated prices, which further drives the domestic price through the roof.

And not a breath of limiting exports to help stabilize us here at home.

At this point I'm starting to think that they're purposefully creating a famine to kill off as many people as possible. It's hard to understand what the US government is doing in any other terms.

If the last election taught me anything it's that the adversary does not hang their hat on just one plan. It has many, many plans in motion towards achieving its objective. Some might work out, others might turn out to be unfruitful and abandoned. The virus and the jab was just part of their plans, either caused directly by them or they jumped in on the bandwagon once they realized the coof was something they could use.

As a catalyst for civil unrest for a social change, sure but if they genuinely had 0 food supply for more than 3 months there would be tens of millions dead. Maybe drive people into relocation centers in exchange for all their wealth, that sort of thing.

Not disagreeing with your overall statements, but the vast amount of corn produced in the US has never been for human consumption. Most corn grown is called dent corn or field corn and is used for producing livestock feed and now ethanol for fuel. Sweet corn, the kind intended for human consumption, is somewhere around 5% of the corn grown in US farmland. Most people just assume that the corn they see growing in a field is for people when it really isn't.

I do know what it's grown for. And that's constantly leveraged to create fear too. When all those floods and hurricanes and whatnot wiped out a huge swath of corn in the Midwest a few years ago both farmers and the media made it sound like we were all going to starve when in reality most of that crop was not sown for human consumption. But they like to pretend any of their already heavily subsidized hardships are going to cause imminent starvation to keep the Farm Bill bucks flowing.

Wheat is not fit for human consumption.

The only plant crop that matters is grass.

Our foods food

Time to stock up on canned goods, rice, and TP.

Get a bidet, then you don't need TP if it goes into shortage. Luxe bidet can be had for $50 and is simple to install.
