It will slip right through the fingers of the farmers, and go towards the equipment they bought on a 10 year note while they were stringing together a few good years , plus, everyone who sells to the farmers will see another nickel on the table and raise the price ten cents.
I am a single-truck trucking operation; nobody subsidizes me no matter how high the fuel cost, equipment cost, or poor the rates are. The only difference between a "welfare queen" and a corn or soybean farmer is the line they stand in. So sad.
I pay what the truckers charge me per bushel. It is the going rate to haul to the elevator. You "professional truckers" determine that. The only way I get around paying for my trucking is if I do it myself,,,then I have to pay truck repairs, fuel, oil, etc to keep that truck operating, not counting the time behind the whee.,,,so where is your gripe? You ought to be happy that your customers will get a gov check , so you can get paid also. I am so sorry about your anger about gov subsidies, I feel it is misplaced..You need to direct it on those truckers hauling below the rate you wish to charge. That is your competition.
Nice piece. Thanks for the info.
Merry Christmas and thanks for the information.
Lol, I used to think exactly like you till I became a farmer lots of little differences.

More corn will get planted. Yet less fertilizer will be applied. Plus more 2nd rate corn seed will be used. Cause its cheaper.
Its not enough to really make a big difference.Im not sure why some guys get worked up, I made more that that with decent marketing plan.

You pass your cost on to the customer. Farmers take what the market decides. Don’t talk with your mouth full Einstein!
If farmers go broke you will

@@ryanmckenzie8665 farmers need to market their grain better. That's the reason they're crying for a check.
