I believe the American cycle for the next 50 years will have farmers back on top of the earning chain just as the car companies were 40 years ago. I plan on trying to hold onto my dads farm after he dies but will have to fight bros and sisters to keep them from selling it off for the quick buck.
They aren't making anymore dirt Regards,

My Brother In Laws farm rice, expenses (seed, fertilizer, equipment, fuel) are up anywhere from 2 to 4 times what they were in the '70's, and rice prices are 40% less, do the math. You have to make very high yields these days to survive. Thank goodness for crawfish!
It is ashame we have to wait on ships and barges to deliver alot of the things we consume in the good ol' US of A, just hope we never have to wait on a ship or barge to deliver us our food!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People need to quit complaining about govt. subsidies, and be thankful, because without them, they would be paying way more in the grocery store than they are now.
Back to the original post, over here to the east were we have plenty rice fields, we have plenty ducks, best it has been in several years. I,m assuming marshes may be dry or too salty?
