“The row crop guy's prices were propped up by mandates”
You mean like the mandate that the southern border is closed causing artificially inflated beef prices here?
You mean to prevent the spread of disease and parasites, an actual logical, well thought out reason that has been proven for more than 3 centuries? If you don't support that, then it is safe to say you think the sick should be allowed to roam as they please, shall we discuss Covid again as well?
Otherwise no, I mean the Renewable Fuel Standard, which mandated ethanol use for little reason and now has done nothing but screw the corn belt, turning into a big monocrop headache and hastening the decline in farms and strong diversified operations to the point where, apparently to everyone here, the entire corn belt can only grow corn and beans and absolutely nothing else, yet can find any and every excuse not to diversify in any direction. |
