Yeah, and while Exxon touts oil exploration in Guyana they bought 120000 acres of land around Smackover, AR. Something about 4 million tons of lithium in the ground?
- Thread starter eca7891
- Start date
And due to the "Go Green" / "Save the earth program".... Exxon will end up selling all that out to the US Government, at a big profit. "Go Green" would fall flat on it's face without the USD's............. Your tax payer dollars at work. Just a Ponzi Scheme.
Random thoughts while pulling weeds in my garden, this morning.
America is not "Cultivating Farmers".
While spending billions of USD's / Taxpayers money is funding Universities.
Agreed, they turn out young people with degrees in "Agriculture".
The fallacy is that a 25 year old with a Masters in Agriculture or Farming can not afford to buy land to farm.
These kids have student loans, no credit rating and are lacking in a farmer's work ethic. They bought the "Pie in the Sky".
What is being turned out is green kids with no actual farming experience that will go to work for Conagra, Tyson, ADM, Cargill, etc.
In turn, the CEO's of these companies could not grow a tomato plant in a porch planter. Below is info on the CEO of Conagra.
America is heading down a path that will lead it to a cliff with no bottom in sight.
The term lack of foresight comes to mind.
American's are being brainwashed into thinking growing food and farming should be done in developing countries.
Land in America is way to valuable to be growing produce on. There is a gigantic housing shortage. Build houses where there are corn fields. Problem solved.
An Eisenhower quote:
Special Message to the Congress on Agriculture, 1/9/56
"You know, farming looks mighty easy when your plow is a pencil, and you're a thousand miles from the corn field."

What is the standard farm size?
The average farm size for 2021 is 445 acres, up from 444 acres the previous year. Agricultural research and data collection are still mostly based on acres. Based on that, the stats that keep coming out perpetuates the perception that farming is a losing financial proposition.

oilprice.com You cannot go into dirt farming without a family legacy of already owned land any more. Rarely will you be profitable enough as a start up to stay a float. Even renting land if you do not own at prices creeping above $150 per acre is a losing proposition unless you are using it to supplement or rotate land you already own. The only option that I see used around me that tends to work is getting into chicken, hog or turkey farming and then expanding to dirt farming with what is made from house farming. Corn and beans alone will not pay the rent here....tobacco is fully contract regulated and going away while folks moving in to get away from their blue state hells are raising farm land prices to stupid numbers. The really profitable guys around here have discovered the agri-business growing strawberries etc and produce/sweet corn along with their regular crops and making good money on the traffic those things generate selling farm direct........or they are huge legacy farms that own enough land and equipment to make lower money crops work. My best friend does 4 chicken houses, 200 cows, strawberries/produce sold at the farm and about 1800 acres of beans/corn/wheat. That is what it takes today in my area to make money farming and land is still being snapped up and made into cookie cutter developments for outsiders.
Those giant corn fields you see are not growing food.

.... This was 2017.. not sure how much has changed in 6 years....
1870 was the first US Census in which farmers were in the minority (47.7%).Today, only 1.3% of Americans are still farming and increasingly do so on operations of over 2,000 acres. Even so, family farms still make up 98% of our agricultural sector. Farm ownership still reflects the legacy of the Homestead Act of 1862 as a great deal of current farmland still belongs to descendants of the 19th century homesteaders. According to the most recent USDA Census of Agriculture in 2017, the largest share of the US agricultural land is owned by families and individuals (201.5 million acres of cropland and 223.8 million acres of pastureland). Partnerships and family corporations own most of the remaining private land with non-family corporations holding only 3.1 million acres of cropland and 6.4 million acres of pastureland (see graph below).

What skews the numbers is corn grown for ethanol production is still considered "agriculture". An average family farm of 489 acres can't produce ethanol corn at a profit, as pointed out above. Family farming is a money losing endevour.
Food crop fields are being converted to "biofuel" producing acreage and this will continue year after year with an increasing percentage of land being converted to ethanol corn.

Sustainability of Agricultural Biomass in the Northwest Agricultural biofuels can supplement our energy resources in the United States. Biofuels are often referred to by “generations”, with first generation being food crops that are grown on arable land, and second generation being food...
This Rabbit Hole of "Go Green / Sustainability" is getting bigger and deeper by the day. If America stays on this path the day will come when out enemies powered by Coal, Oil, Diesel, Nuclear and every other form of dirty energy will steam roll over America in a matter of days. Probably during a January when it is the coldest days on record.

Insufficient grid infrastructure is one of the biggest hurdles to the growth of the domestic renewable energy industry. To keep up with renewable energy production targets, the country will need 47,300 gigawatt-miles of new power lines by 2035 – a 57% expansion of the existing grid and a two-fold increase in the current rate of construction – according to the U.S. Department of Energy. The current pace of construction is painfully slow due to a set of byzantine bureaucratic processes which govern permitting and oversight for renewable energy projects and grid expansion. The average review of renewable energy projects takes about 3.5 years, but there are cases in which a single transition line took over a decade to be completed.

The Bugey power plant has a capacity of 3.6 gigawatts (GW), and the Saint Alban nuclear plant has 2.6 GW capacity.
For the rest of this week, production will be at least 1.8 GW at Bugey and 1.3 GW at the Saint Alban plant to meet grid requirements, EDF has said. Output could change depending on the needs of the grid, it added.

Heatwave Forces French Nuclear Power Plants To Curb Output | OilPrice.com
The ongoing heatwave in Europe is set to restrict nuclear power generation at two French plants this week due to increased river temperatures affecting reactor cooling systems.
oilprice.com Gave some thought to my comment above about the temperature effect on power plants.
The hotter the ambient temperature, the less fuel a coal burner, waste burner or a gas fired plant will use.
It's all about super heating water into high pressure steam to spin the turbine generator.
The hotter the water is at the intake, the less energy required to bring it up to heat.
Yes, I am over simplifying....
Food for thought

I’m pretty sure it’s safe to stop this dude a few paragraphs in and tell him to just fuck off.
Since this is definitely on the horizon for us i hope all of you are preparing accordingly.
If you are in a city it’s better to leave a year early than it is too late. If you are in a big metro area when this goes into full swing you will be fucked.

Does anyone actually think that if the population is reduced everyone will get an economic boom, like what happened after the Black Plague? Does anyone think that after 90% of the world is killed that the remainder will have the boot lifted and live in Utopia? That children will not be stolen any longer, economic slavery (debt) abolished and wars cease? If you do, you are an idealistic idiot and a Marxist.
I actually wonder if we are approaching a second Dark Age where most of what we have learned will be turned into algorithms for AI and most people will be so functionally ignorant that we may more closely resemble the populace from the dark ages than the uneducated soldiers in the Civil War. Then true separation and caste systems can flourish. It’s astonishing that we are looking at this as a possibility. But it seems to have been planned for a while now.

Your prediction sounds plausible. Room for the fringe minorities with unacceptable views to live comfortably.

U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve Will Not Be Replenished Anytime Soon | OilPrice.com
The U.S. Secretary of Energy has emphasized that the Strategic Petroleum Reserve will not be fully replenished any time soon.
oilprice.com What we are fast diving into and the Global Elites are openly proclaiming and all the idiot generation is begging for is a return of the Feudal System.
Only the rich elites will be able to "own" anything.
Only the rich elites will be able to "travel" anywhere
Everybody else will be a serf and a slave.
The police and military will be the open tools of oppression to keep the serfs in line while the new global green religion of Satan will tell everyone that they are supposed to be enjoying their miserable lives.
