I like how people don’t want the farmers to prosper. These aren’t big banks that make up money and loopholes. They are the people making sure EVERYONE else doesnt die of starvation.
How many of those farmers voted for trump? You reap what you sow, farms should know that. But many farmers have learned you reap a huge welfare check when you sow hatred so they keep doing it.
The majority of the farms around me are cash crops, not providing food for survival. I’m in central California and all I see here is almonds, pistachios, tomatoes and cows. We need to get rid of these since it’s just wasted space that’s doomed to fail as it’s using up valuable resources to profit the few that own them.
We have one acre and we grow a variety of different veggies, trying to grow with sustainable methods like regenerative farming practices. We trade with other like minded people and my wife donates excess to the local church to help feed the poor. We need more people doing this and less of the big corporate farmers lining their pockets while everyone else suffers.

Reap what you sow in your instance means starve everyone in yhe country to death.
A. No it doesn’t, we already imported more then we exported and still do.
B. That’s not an excuse, make better choices and stop crying when stupidity inevitably kicks you in the ass.
Depends on what they are farming and what you mean by “everyone”.
The article says most of this will go to those that produce soybeans and corn - most of that is livestock feed.
Livestock we eat?
I don’t eat livestock. About 6% of Americans are vegetarian, proving that plenty of people do w/o livestock and don’t starve.
Having the option for the other 94% is pretty nice though.
Nice? Sure, I guess. However, I was talking more about starving vs. not.
I mean, yes, being a vegetarian is possible. Doesn’t make me want farmers to get less money.
Wait for mega farms owned by vc and banks to be the ones to get the most as always.
Stop crying start reading.
Who doesn’t want farmers to prosper? And are they farming for altruistic reasons?
