I am not a large scale farmer.
OK.... Great observation and post. Here is the deal. I use the word "sprinkling" to describe the food situation. The same thing happened during the ammo shortage and the toilet paper shortage. Commodities are being spread around strategically to the point of when one guy says "Look there is a shortage of XYZ"..... another guy will reply and say "My local grocery store has so much XYZ that there is a pallet full on sale at the front door.

The future is unknown. We wake up to a different world every day. No one knows what the "plan" is or if there really is a plan.
Those of you who grow a garden understand Mother Nature. When it becomes obvious a plant / crop is going to fail, a farmer can't simply replant. That window of opportunity has closed. All a farmer can do is think about why the failure occurred and adapt the changes into next year's crop. He is hoping that crop failure is not a 2 or 3 year ordeal.

I just read the report and it doesn't look terrible, unless i'm missing a key part of it. Corn planted acreage down 4% this year, soybeans up 1%, and several others up slightly. We won't know until after the harvest what the yields are going to be with many farmers opting out of fertilizing due to high prices, but that will be interesting. total farmland planted seems to be up. If I missed the sign in the report, if you would please point it out to me cause I clearly missed it.

You are fortunate to have a local processor, looking at things to come. Many of them have gone out of business... Give some thought to processing your own meat. That may be what it is coming to.
Thank you for your input. Your report sounds similar to the other reports (worldwide) that are being publicized. But again, all of the "Government Reports" are filled with propaganda and skewed numbers. Their inflation numbers are not even close to what inflation is for the working family.
If any is available next year I will have to bite the bullet.
Helped my dad and brother-in-law butcher a hog last year... We waited and waited and waited for a slot to open up at one of the local processors. By the time he decided to do it himself, that hog was 500-600 lbs.
Thanks for the input... You bring out some good points that I have been thinking about. Basically the size of the animal and the time of year. Being I'm just one old guy in Montana and a small hog / piglet butchered when the weather cools off would be two things in my favor. If I wanted more meat, I could just raise some staggered in age so it would not be a big undertaking.
I wish I had picked my grandparents' brains more when they were alive.
#64 on that list is bullshit. A plane crashed there, yes. Production never stopped. I’m sure other reports on that list are false as well.WEF great reset in full swing.
Another Food Processing Plant Shutters Operations, Adding To Long List Of Closures
The announcement of the closure pushed up the number of closed US food processing plants over the last year to 100. The list below are plants destroyed, damaged, or impacted by "accidental fires," disease, or other causes (courtesy of The Gateway Pundit):
Food grade 55 gallon drums work if you don’t have the cast iron kettle. Steam/pressure washers take the work out of it. Fuck scraping hogs.
I need those skills as well. I also would love to have a smokehouse in case we need to go back that
2018 and 2019 our fertilizer bill was around $2300 plus $75 to rent the buggy, per year, sent off a soil sample for this year was needing a little more Lbs per acre, the bill was now $8500 but no charge for the buggy. We decided to pass. But they did have everything we wanted.
Well it certainly isn't a decreased moisture causing lower yield.
I said fuck that. I have 2 years to let the land rest and thats what I am doing. Sold most of my heard and only kept enough to last a few years for my consumption. After that I am switching to sheep.
I have heard you can use a pressure washer with heat to do this, however I have never seen it done.
) MacI saw suggestions to put burlap bags or towels on the pig and pour hot water over them instead of dipping them.
If we're talking about tomorrow, sure. But if shit goes south and all the convenient sources of energy get hard to come by... Then knowing the old tried and true manual labor methods might be a good idea.
Problem with that is when you don't have anywhere to spend the money, said tenant can't pay you, and becomes another mouth to feed.
There’s many ways to collect “rent” besides cash. Hot wimmins to do house work, cleaning, etc. emphasis on etc.
