PeteMN - 1/16/2026 16:21 The main reason Congress keeps sending money to farmers is to make sure their voters don't read any headlines about farmers not planting crops. Things could get really ugly at election time if stores are forced to ration groceries... At the current rate, I wonder how big our national debt will be by November.


with the current projected carryover, 10% of our cornfields could go unplanted and still not miss a beat if we have another good crop in 2026... i don't think thats the issue. 


10% is really about 3%. Who’s gonna set aside their best 10%?


I don’t think anyone will on purpose. My point was he mentioned grocery shelves running short or empty. That’s not going to happen due to corn or soybeans in this country in 2026, and unlikely in 2027 if we’re being real.
I was thinking if the set aside program comes back.


The public would have a hay day with that.
Maybe a stronger effort for the border strips around trees lines/etc?
Like a 4-5 year program? While they ramp up e15 and SAF?

What if we were all allowed to take 5% of our reported acres out of production each year. Any 5 each year for 4 years. Growers/landlords choice what happens to the land. You can let it sit and grow up in weeds. You can mow it, you can plant a cover crop, you can tile it. You could do parts of fields, any field in your 5%. It could be the parts along tree lines, it could be the wet hold no one can fix because o where to take the water because of grade.
It’d be a massive amount of work on FSA part tho. And because of that they are just going to keep cutting us interim checks in the mean time. I wholeheartedly believe that.
