      "Can we feed and fuel 9.7 billion people in 2050?"

      It's just a commodity. And we get paid accordingly until market dynamics like in lentils and mustard occur this year. Will we ever see this in wheat, corn, soybean and canola? I'm feeling so warm and fuzzy I had to take some clothes off.

        Nice video but reality is wheat for pig feed is worth more per AC than high quality wheat

                Looks good. Keep feeding the world.

                I remember a quote from the New Holland News magazine some time in the early 90's.

                "Never have so few, fed so many, for so little. "

                Somehow, we are supposed to be happy about that. It is what it is.

                  Those videos always remind me of the propaganda films put out for war efforts or the former Soviet Union

                    A few years ago that video would have inspired me . Today , with the exploding cost and risk involved with net returns getting squeezed tighter and tighter even with good crops .. Not so much
                    Everyone in the input chain up and down is pissing there pants with glee to extract every last dollar we try to make - I am only 44 but the future is a lot more questionable now than just a few years ago. The massive risk in land , machinery , parts and crop inputs have taken the shine off the primary producer outlook - well this one anyway.
