      That is slowing down too. The ecomony is busted. No one can pay a mortgage with no jobs. And being replaced by illegals. No farms no food.

      No 😂 this is blatant farming mismanagement. You can grow food in a drought if you use permaculture methods. Big Ag needs to get it together.

    What is the problem? We can always buy all our food from foreign countries like we do with everything else. Just ignore the plight of the underpaid foreign farm workers, the toxic pesticides they use, etc., and it will help us achieve our climate change goals by not using farm equipment. Remember to vote Democrat to expedite it all.
