  1. Total BS. Propaganda. Prices on Chemical Fertilizer went up 350 % prior to anything reported here. Reason? Because fertilizer is made from fossil fuel. So any farmer wanting to plant crops that need fertilizer will have an increase from 45 dollars per acre to plant now must pay 165 dollars per acre if he can even get the fertilizer. Many farmers are not able to plant. Those farmers like me have some fertilizer in storage to plant around 30 percent of their crops. You can not feed everyone on 30 percent folks. Some farmers can plant nothing at all. Some farmers are planting soybean in the delta areas where fertilizer is not needed. Care to guess what the soybean will be used for? You got it. Bio Diesel. Thats right folks. Burning what food can be grown in the big rigs. You can not make this stuff up. All of this planned by government. All of it. A lot of USA farmers are in a panic over this. In over 60 years of farming, we farmers have never ever seen anything like this. NEVER!! Around one of our farms, Bill Gates is buying up the farms. Gates owns around 250,000 acres of land. What is this godless person up to? He must have known this was being planned as he has been buying land for many years now.
